Yeah. But I also like surprises and variety. This one played one note. It was a huge contrast with the LGC 'N' I just reviewed.
I thought you'd look different..... More like my build but 8 feet tall.. Hmmmm guess you never know, you are a handsome devil. Nice to see you last night!

LOL, not quite that tall. All my weight sits right on my gut. My wife agrees with you about the handsome part, but I've never thought so. I do try to make the best out of what God's given me, though. I enjoyed the vherf. And the cigar. I'll do it again sometime, for sure.
Nice line up and had nearly all of those. Haven't smoked one of the new OSOK's yet though so I'd say that or the EH Passion for review. The EH is surprisingly outstanding, or at least it was for my palate.
20-30 min! The Puro Authenticos take an hour for me since they have such an oily wrapper. I've always used a guillotine on them and never had any tar buildup.

Well, I have smoked these in an hour or just under, and that's probably what they are meant for, I guess, but in the windy cold of this morning I had to increase my puff rate to keep one lit and that's all it took me. I guess I wasn't clear that when I see a cigar in this size that I expect it to be a fairly short smoke, but this one doesn't meet those expectations. It's too much cigar for 20-30 minutes and you have to slow it down. The hour-long range is what I expect for a robusto, not a corona. Surprisingly, though, I don't notice much of a detrimental effect to the flavor by smoking at double speed with these.
Don't cut it or punch it. Just twist the nub off. That's all the opening you need. I love 'em, especially the smoke-producing shaggy foot. The flavors do mellow out a bit with some age, but once the oils dry you lose the smoke. And they are pepper bombs.
Martel that is the corona, 5X42. The robusto is 4 7/8X50. If you need help finding more, let me know. The corona is a tad stronger then the other vitolas. This is my favorite new brand. They are distributed by SAG, which is MATASA's US hub, so you can find them anywhere that uses SAG to get smokes, but they are only in store.
