Drew Estate Undercrown 10 Corona ¡Viva! 2021 (FRCSW3)

[sho671]

This past week was a little warmer than expected hitting the high 50s and low 60s, which meant smoking after the sun goes down would be enjoyable. This was my first smoke of the week on Wednesday after the work and going to the gym. The presentation was pretty nice with a ribbon and three bands including the foot band. Construction was good with great burn and smoke production that held a good ash. Tasting notes were dominated by a bitter cocoa and earth. I expected more pepper throughout but there was really only a mild note on the retro. The Corona ¡Viva! vitola was just the right size for about an hour smoke.

2/5

How would you compare it against the regular Drew Estate Undercrown Maduro or even the Liga Privada T52? My understanding is that those 3 all have the same wrapper, but curious what makes this better than the original maduro
