Review Notes: OK .... you're looking at these reviews so you're interested in these cigars. They're as good as people down below say based on my experience with a few. Box buy you bet.

Review Notes: This cigar had some of the best flavors and when properly humidified can even rival some of the best 10.00 cigars on the market. It has creamy coffee and cinimmon flavors that get stronger during the smopke. GREAT CIGAR!

Review Notes: All prices are by the box either del'd to my door or p/up locally. In the past 48 hours now I have smoked Bolivar Belicoso Finos (GKI DIC04 $208), Partagas Petite Coronas Especiales (DTF AGO04 $134), Partagas Shorts (2002-03? $125), San Cristobal de la Habana El Principe (2004 $128), Honduran Sancho Panza Barcelona (awesome value also at $65 a box). Still, I cannot say that there is any cigar among these that in terms of value, complexity and flavor for the price can stand up to a properly aged and humidified (66 and then 69 degrees) La Aroma De Cuba Corona Minor ($78bx). The one I had last night was just fantastic, aged maybe 6 months or so now, oozing creamy flavors of coffee and cinnamon. Sure cuban cigars have qualites that make them special and I love them, but this cigar at $3 a stick can stand up to the vast majority of Habanos and at $72 a box they sometimes make me wonder why the hell I ever buy Cuban PC's for $130+. Anyway, buy a box. Smoke a few, then have one a month for awhile then tell me if 6 or 8 months in you do not want to simply smoke every last one of them over the course of the next couple week. BUY THESE CIGARS! *I do not work for Ashton or any cigar company, just love good cigars...

Review Notes: Purchased two of these and had the hardest time getting the draw to open up on both of them, but the flavor is great. I'd agree with earlier posters about the hint of vanilla and cream, noticed it right off the bat. Roll it between your fingers before you smoke it or you'll spend the first ten minutes trying to get the dang thing to open up. Great value though, and cool label art just adds to the already great appearance.

Review Notes: Attractive and oily with a dark reddish brown wrapper. It has a rather inconsistent burn that requires retouching throughout. A nice draw produces aromatic, spicy and musky smoke, but this corona minor smells stronger than it tastes. The first few puffs were earthy, spicy, and full-bodied, but it quickly settles down to become much more creamy with smooth, tasty flavors of light spice and paper. This smoke was mild-bodied in a way, which was a surprise. Will revisit the cigar again someday to see if this stick was an anomaly.
