One of the greatest
, - One of the truly great Cuban cigars. Intriguing notes of dried herbs and cedar on the finish. Put the full box down for a deep sleep in a humidor for 3-4 years of aging before smoking, as these Double Coronas really benefit from having some age on them.

King of the Prominentes
, - It needs a few years to marry the flavors, but this is my favorite Double Corona. Take your time and you have 2.5 hours of world-class tobacco.
