H.Upmann Petit Coronas - 25 cigars

Product Review (submitted on August 1, 2015):

President Kennedy had his press secretary Pierre Salinger buy up Washington D.C.'s entire supply of these cigars immediately before he signed the embargo against Cuba, so there's a solid endorsement from one of history's great cigar lovers. On a dramatically less influential note, I believe these are terrific little cigars. Being one of the world's more popular vitolas gives this Upmann lots of competition - the Montecristo #4 for example - which the Upmann equals or exceeds in terms of construction, burn, and taste. That said, Upmann itself makes a cigar that is virtually indistinguishable - the Corona Major Tubo - which in my opinion has slightly more of that distinct Upmann flavor and is equally attractive. Instead of a slight box press though the Majors are perfectly round as each one is packaged in its own aluminum tube. Oh, and Cigar Terminal sells them for less! So buy a box of the PCs for a taste of history but buy the Majors for an even better taste overall.
