La Flor de Cano Petit Corona [jan 2011]
A good looking cigar, rich matte chocolate colour with a hint of red to the wrapper almost a dark peach colour.
Well rolled, whilst at the same time looking quite rough and ready [they can be quite veiny].
It has a really good feel in the fingers due to the matte/rough wrapper, it feels like its going to be satisfying smoke.
They smell great, with the cedar sleeve they come in providing a nice compliment to the cigars own aroma.
The toasting before the proper light gives a good indication of how the rest of the cigar will follow, beautiful smells and a quite a bit of thick white smoke.
The draw is perfect, just to me liking, not tight at all. A long pull gives ample thick white smoke.
Its a mellow individual, with a few clear flavours. I would say they break down into leather, wood and coffee with a developement of a herbal/floral flavour towards the nub.
The burn can be a little uneven at times, but easily corrected.
Overall, I think this an impressive stick for the price and definatley a contender for a favourite everyday'er.
