La Aurora Connecticut Corona - Mid Atlantic Exclusive

Well here we go, this is review number four of the new release from La Aurora Cigars, the Mid-Atlantic exclusive Corona. These new Coronas are a copy of the Preferido line  in every way, except size. 

Starting with a seamless wrapper this cigar just keeps getting better and better. The cigar is packed well full length and Claro colored shows only the finest of veins. A triple cap nicely tops off this good looking little cigar.

From the cold foot there are notes of spiced tea while the free cold draw has a sweet and spicy taste.

Once the cigar is toasted and burning there are initial mild bodied flavors of sweet cream mixed with sugar. As the razor sharp burn moves up the body other flavors of oak, toast, caramel and leather join into the mix. After forty-five minutes this Corona had a surprising finish as the strength unexpectedly and quickly moved in the medium/full range. Just to flaunt its power, the final flavors from this cigar are a mix of leather, sugar and oak. I didn't expect these flavors or the strength in the finish, but I did enjoy it and I bet you will too!

Rated 93

There are six different wrappers in this release making this the forth in a six part series. The other two reviews will be coming down the pipe soon. La Aurora Cigars are distributed by Miami Cigar and Company.

Eight O'Clock Coffee The Original

This sample of Eight O'Clock Coffee , "The Original", came right off the supermarket shelf the other day. It's a medium roast blend that included a large volume of broken and partial beans. Actually, I was surprised by the volume of broken beans as I poured each sample into the grinder. When the bag was opened, to the nose there were rich aromas of toast and coffee, while the pour-over aromas were a mix of cocoa and warm bread. I brewed and sampled four cups of The Original to be sure of my tasting notes. On the Eight O'Clock web site they list this coffee as "sweet, fruity and well balanced." Like most other coffee reviews that's not exactly what I found. In my samples there were semi-sweet flavors of toast, nuts and earth, with a hint of cocoa as the coffee cooled. I found the coffee clean and well balanced with a medium bodied, slightly dry mouth feel. Overall, The Original, from Eight O'Clock coffee brewed a flavorful rewarding cup

Tryst No. 2 Robusto Brandy E-Cigar

Featuring e-juice made in the USA, these  Tryst  e-cigars are a pretty sweet deal. The No. 2 Robusto Brandy is another great example of a cigarette alternative that give me cigar-like satisfaction indoors or wherever I can't smoke a real cigar. Like the last Tryst reviews, I've been puffing on the No. 2 the past two days while writing. Other than its brandy flavor, this Brandy model is just like the the other No. 2's. The tapered head makes it easy to hold hands-free between your teeth, the wrapper is durable showing no signs of wear, it produces a large volume of vapor and the brandy flavored e-juice tastes fantastic.  You probably know I'm not much of a flavored cigar person, but these American made e-juices from Tryst have fantastic flavor, this brandy is really close to tasting like brandy. I've tried other flavored e-cigarette products in the past and the flavors don't compare at all to the Tryst e-cigar flavors. Add together the great taste, the
