Jimmy2 Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Thanks to DC for giving me the chance of a life time for me to smoke this Gem.This is a Cohiba Grand Corona its the rarest of all the 35 anniversary I think.It has the solid foot which means its from the Cohiba Grand Corona 35 Anniversary humidor. Here we go: Foot .Solid Cap: Perfect triple with flat head also has a divot Smell Cold:Floral-Grassy ,Sweet Draw :Firm but very manageable 1 st:Med flavor Carmel,milk some of the Cohiba Grassy ness ,Peppery Lemon flavor but mild noticeable under the strong flavors noted above 1/2:Steady Med flavor Cohiba Grassy ness now stronger,Tangy sweet flavors -mild white pepper-some bitter sweet dark chocolate-peppermint also black licorice. Down to the nub: Med flavor Still classic Cohiba grassy ness also very rich sweet earthy flavors-Very creamy now with a very long sweet finish -milk flavor-tangy pepper flavor-coco bean / bitter sweet dark chocolate a very strong long finish .WOW!!! This cigar is not meant to be a power house its a cigar of perfect balance .Showing what a master blender can do with some very special tobacco. A cigar of great character and finesse a true Connoisseur cigar.It had multiple flavors and evolved into a truly memorable cigar. Thanks Again DC it took me a while to get some balls and finally smoke this bad boy.As always I am at your service to do more reviews on some of your classy cigars. Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva This Rum is the best sipping rum out there in my eyes its very smooth with carmel,dark fruits,Molasses but not to sweet very balanced(Hate thick overly sweet rums Zacapa and Zaya are over rated in my eyes they are good but not great get boring real fast)Toffee,vanilla,some spice on the finish.If you drink it slow more flavors develope and you will have a longer finish..

perfectform Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 Thanks for the review...I could taste that sucker as I was reading! I just had the pleasure of sipping some Goslings Black Seal rum and it was outstanding. Give it a shot if you can find it...
