If you haven't tried this one it might be to late! They were limited editions and probably hard to find.
Mark's point of view:
5 5/8 X 46 Corona Gorda
I was at a cookout a couple years ago and one of my buddies gave me one of these. I had never heard of them and fell in love with them. They were priced a bit out of my normal range so I hadn't smoked one after the freebie! Low and behold I went to a local shop a couple months later and the Crowned Heads rep was setup having all kinds of promotions. I had never tried any of their other cigars, only this one that one time. After walking in to buy 2 sticks for some event I was attending that weekend I walked out with my 2 PLUS two different Crowned Heads samplers. A 4 cigar sampler of these and another 8 cigar sampler of two of each of 4 other labels.
This brand was pretty impressive with the Day of the Dead look. Even though the 4 pack was about $11 per stick at the time I had to do it! Although I wish I would of bought way more of them since they are now hard to find. They come out in a new limited edition every spring, I think. Try them!!
Everything about this one was awesome. It is one of my favorites, but mostly a memory now. Burn & draw were almost perfect. Flavor was filled with all sorts of great tastes, some sweetness and spice too. Starts off kind of subtle and then wow the flavor kicks in fast. Just really good all around.
My Final Thought - "I paid about $11 in a sampler and I would do that again. MSRP for these are well worth it for that special occasion or to keep on hand for that nice relaxing break where you know you have the time to spend cherishing this smoke."
An update to this review. I just purchased a 5 pack of the 2019 and the review will be done soon. Looking forward to it!
