Review Notes: The aroma of this cigar, even before lit, was wonderful. With the label art and smell this is just a pretty stick. Great cigar to smoke at the end of the day. Not too hot a smoke, which i do not enjoy, and just the right amount of flavor to keep you smoking it until it burns your fingertips. One of the best values out there. Smoke a few and you'll find yourself buying a box.

Review Notes: Gifted one of these and let it sit a couple months in the humi. Smoked it last night and what a treat. Complex, changing flavors the varied from cocoa, coffee, leather, cherry, etc...great flavor, nice draw and burn, just excellent. Actually ordered a box after getting home.

Review Notes: I bought a box of these for $72 at my local cigar shop, who give 10% off for box if paid in cash as these were. Have smoked about 10 now over the past month and can't say enough about them. These cigars simply blow away most any other $6 and under cigar, regardless of their Cigar Aficionado rating. They are dense, smooth and have that Cuban characteristic of nice, changing flavors and complexity as you smoke each third of the cigar. Enjoy with Cabernet, Chianti Classico, Scotch, or somewhat heavier beer like Bass Ale, Guiness, Sam Adams Boston Lager... My rating is grounded in this cigar's price - sure I rate some Cuban Cohiba's (Siglo II and III and the Lanceros of old) 9's like I did this one and their flavors far exceed this one but at 3 cigars for the price of 1, these also warrant a 9. Given my everyday smoke is a Cuban Bolivar Petite Cornona for $6 each, these compare quite nicely at $3 each. Now let's age a box or two and see what they are like 18 months from now. I am thinking any smoker who does that will truly have a find in this cigar, as well as La Aroma's Petite Corona which is so dense it reminds one of Ashton VSG's to a degree.

Review Notes: For the money La Aroma de Cuba is one of the best out there, imo. Lovely dark wrapper with an oily sheen, and a well made double cap. These are strong cigars, I was amazed at the power these non-maduro cigars can crank out. A little lacking in the depth of flavors, but still pleasant. As always great construction.

Review Notes: Expected more of this Ashton made corona, in the second half the draw was nil and the cigar simply could not kept alive, but had to use my torch several times to get in alive again
