Reviews for Punch Coronations Tubed Cigar - 1 Single

Strong and full bodied smoke but somewhat one dimensional in my opinion. Ive smoked several of these and all have been well constructed and had excellent draw.

To make a strange comparison to chocolate..if your not a dark chocolate fan then this cigar might not be for you. The Bolivar is extremly rich and shares a similar sharpness/bitterness to a deep dark high cocoa content chocolate...for that reason this is a cigar very much for the later evening..I do not doubt that some of this sharpness may mellow out with further ageing and turn this cigar into a real classic beauty. What I really like about this cigar is its aroma as it burns, deep smooth chocolatey hazelnuts..its the sort of aroma that you'd love to sit in a room and smell while others smoke it. An aroma second to none that I have smoked..I just wish this transfered a little more in the taste..though again I repeat this may well happen with a little more time on its side. A definite to add and age with your collection but perhaps not an everyday smoke.

Nicely made, good aroma, perfect draw, but too strong for my taste. I expect that those who like a good strong cigar will find this a very enjoyable smoke, at a very reasonable price.

On bowl 3 of this, supposedly a replacement for Dunhill Dark Flake. Its not. The tin note is fruity, the Dark Flake is rawer, more tobacco. The flakes are similar in appearance, cut, thickness, length. Taste is also different, certainly a good quality but not as good as the Dunhill original. The start of the bowl hits you with a definite fruit flavour, not unpleasantly just assuredly. Halfway down the bowl the flavour fades somewhat reverting to a purer tobacco taste. The final shock to the palate is a subtle hint of vanilla just before the last few breaths. An enjoyable tobacco I found but certainly NOT Dunhill Dark.

These great for half hour smoke you get the Monicristos flavour I had a stroke so cannot describe the whole flavour. Just ordered another ten.
