Appearance
Light brown wrapper with very small thin veins. The seams are tight. Their is a very light oil sheen.
Aroma
Cedar,barnyard,strong tobacco & a hint of spice on the wrapper. White cedar and a hint of spice at the foot.
Prelight Draw
Cedar, dry toast, cinnamon & a hint of dried fruit.
1st
Initial draws bring strong notes of cedar and sour apples. The draw is almost effortless. Burn is almost razor sharp. The sour apples fade and a leather note replaces it. The ash is medium gray and mostly tight with a little stacking. The cinnamon spice is developing.
2nd
The 2nd/3rd starts with notes of cedar, leather, toast and cinnamon spice. The finish is long with an additional sweetness. The sour apple re emerges briefly. I notice a slight imperfection in the wrapper upon removing the band which slid of easily. The burn was off briefly due to the wrapper imperfection but self corrected nicely.
Final/3rd
The strength has been in the medium range throughout. The flavor remains consistent with a brief visit by the sour apple note.
Overall the Corona King provided an enjoyable smoking experience. It has a nice flavor profile and is well balanced. Definitely worth a try. Could be right in your wheelhouse.
A big thank you to Najib Green(brand owner) @MagnateGreen for the cigars for review. You can order from their website.
