Corona Gorda

[Jimmy2]

Which do you think are the top 3 since mid 06 to present and why .

Have not bought many lately and would like to see whats been smoking good.

Please do not list aged cigars only 06 and 07's.

Thanks Again

I don't know why but I almost don't meet good corona gordas.

So, I don't like the vitola.

Jimmy, the 06 Sig IV's I just burned through were fantastic! Excellent aging potential on these but alas, I will never find out because I smoked em all after a 2 month sit down. Don't buy them all as I am saving for another box.:-D

[smokum]

Agree on the Sig IV's...Mag 46 can be awful good too...

[Jimmy2]

Yes the Sig IV is one great cigar finished my box a longggggggg time ago must get another.

I wonder how the Juan Lopez #1's are doing?

The Corona Gorda is really to me the perfect size cigar i have to stock back up on them.

Yeah, and it tastes good, too.

Hoyo de monterrey Epicure 1 (pack 3) - Spectacular with dark wrapper, similar colour as Regalos.

H Upmann Magnum 46 , delicious (pack 3 too, recently cigars in pack 3 or 5 are better than boxes for me, i don't know why)

Jimmy,

Like the size myself..perfect. Partagas EL 2006 ..but not a burn and churn as needs time to fully mature. Sig IV..another one for the ages!

[bassman]

Haven't tried my 06 SLR Serie A yet, so I can't list them- still plenty of 03s left. I'll give another vote for 06 Siglo IVs and the 06 RyJ EX#3s are quite good too.

[Jimmy2]

Partagas EL 2006 have to try some of these on the next sale here.

[Loki]

Another vote for the 06 Punch RS 11.

[trumpetchris]

I LOVE magnum 46s. Almost through a box from early 06 (fantastic). Have a late 06 box I'm going to try to sit on for a while.

[tigger]

I think the only CGs I've smoked from '06 were the Mag 46 and the SLR Serie A. Both were tasty, with potential to be very good in years to come.

[Mel]

The Boli CE of late are full of it.;-)

[El Presidente]

Punch Royal Seleccion No 11. Still a little closed in flavour but you can see the potential of these babies. They also have a great pedigree.

Bolivar Corona Extra. The cabs are excellent. Full of flavour and well rolled/

Cohiba Siglo IV. Just a great cigar currently. Medium full body with some nice kick arse spice while retaining balance. Should do a review of the Siglo IV tomorrow. Thanks for reminding me :-)

[Jimmy2]

Prez how about the late 06 or 07 Mag 46's?

Getting better but they started from a low benchmark. Happy to review again but they were not up to the three others on my list at last tasting.

Hey Jimmy, I have a box of JLS #1 SIH OCT 05, great cigar. Very light & smooth if thats what you like. It also has a very buttery taste through out.

[Jimmy2]

I really Love the Juan Lopez #1 a great daytime smoke indeed.

Corona Extra again what can you say complex with a sweet earthy bite great cigar always have them in the humi house.

Siglo IV my favorate including the Sig II in the whole Cohiba line.

The IV is a creamy complex rollorcoaster ride of med bolded flavors.

I also love the long finish they leave when they are on.

The Mag 46 i just finished a cab about 3 months ago as i posted at the time i said they were great.But as i got deeper into the cab they were very bland very few were stellar hit or miss.This was a big let down as we all know when these puppies are on they really are some of the BEST tasting sticks out there. H.Upmann please come back we all miss you.:-)
