RP Vintage '92 Petite Corona Review

Im going to give a little background before getting on with the review.
I like big cigars for the most part. My daily sticks right now are IT SuperFuerte Godzilla (6x5 It Cameroon Legend Gorilla which is roughly the same size. Ive also been smoking alot of Perdomo Cuban perejo which are huge and some others. Well I dont always have time for a 2hr smoke and have been looking for something that I can fit in right around 30 minutes or so. Enter the RP vintage '92 Petite Corona (4.5x44).
I think I can safely say Ive never met anyone who hasnt liked the RP Vintage line. This cigar is no exception. Infact it is fast turning into one of my new favorites.
The construction was good, infact Im hard pressed to see how this fits into the "2nds" catagory. The wrapper is dark and moist looking. In short its a little box pressed beauty that looks very tasty.
I clipped the end, since seeing threads on how to clip I have been paying close attention and trying to leave part of the cap intact since cigar unraveling has become something I have had regular problems with.
Prelight draw was a little tight but rewarded me with the deep flavor of the tobacco that has made this line of cigars famous.
I toasted the foot and began to enjoy this cigar. The burn was perfect. No need for touchups or relights of anykind. I have had the churchill and the robusto. This cigar IMO packs more flavor in its little frame than either of the others.It had a very complex flavor. Nothing I could pin down honestly I dont think my palette is refined enough yet to pick out individual flavors in a complex smoke like this one. I would consider this little guy full flavored. it has a very strong finish . The ash was also very nice as well.
All in all a very good cigar well worth the money in my humble opinion.
With the draw being a little tighter than what I like I would give this cigar 8.5 out of 10.
They sell in the mid to high $20 range for a bundle of 15 on cbid or can be had for $31 for a bundle of 15 on CI.

As always this review is my own personal opinion such as it is
