Popular Post Ken Gargett Posted June 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2020 The Corona Gorda Crush (well, I couldn’t think of a better name) – H. Upmann Magnum 46 – Holgate Double Trouble - Equipo Navazos ‘La Bota de Ron’ No 65. By Ken Gargett. First up for the new series (and can someone please come up with a better name) looking at some of our Corona Gorda (plural?), H. Upmann Magnum 46. The code, if I can decipher Whipcrack’s scribblings, TOU ABR 19. I thought I had probably done this cigar too many times for Kenfessions over the years, so I checked. As it turns out, only twice, including once quite recently. The first time, for reasons that probably seemed appropriate at the time, was when I decided to give a dissertation on funerals, the good, awful and hilarious. It went with a Tassie gin, Dasher & Fisher Meadow Gin, and got 92. The much more recent one, just 86. With a weird Kiwi Orange Liqueur called Rose Rabbit and a terrific Blanton’s Bourbon.

LLC Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Corona Gorda is my favorite vitola. Good start to the series; looking forward to the rest. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
targa88 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Corona Gorda one of my favourites also... unfortunately it is a vitola that seems to be less popular in terms of production 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to know the box codes on the top ones Ken! rob usually supplies me with most, not all, of the cigars i review. i used to supply them all, which was fine, but the problem is the inevitable one of one bloke's humidor. inevitably, unless one is blessed with deep pockets or non-aussie prices, the choice very quickly becomes limited. so rob kindly stepped in. when he remembers to give me codes, i include them. so don't hold your breath on codes for the next few months.

FireDigger Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Corona gorda is my favorite as well. I have a great cab of 46s from 2008. Unfortunately, we're down to five regular productions to choose from, not including the RA Superiores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
