Hey Knuckle, and for our brothers North, Canuckleheads!

I want a box of coronas. Now, I am buying a box (or two) of Boli PCs, so I would like something from another marca. Looking for more of a medium to full bodied smoke. So what a good medium to full bodied corona for me to buy?

Spanks!

The monte 4 is a good choice as is the RyJ cedros delux no 3. If you want something of a more typical cuban flavor profile the monte 4 is the better option. Partagas shorts are also a nice quick little smoke although slightly shorter than a corona. I also like cohiba sig IIs but they are overpriced. You can't really go wrong with any of the choices above. Another nice little smoke that is similar in size to the party shorts is the SCDLH el principe. Its a nice short smoke too.


BTW, what kind of a name is sprizzy? LOL, thats gotta mean something funny.

Corona: 5 1/2 x 42

Just to clarify what size a Corona is for those making suggestions. There are 2 that I would highly recommend based on your preferred flavor profile.

Vegas Robaina Familiar
Partagas Corona (preferably with age)

Another that I would highly recommend, although it is a bit milder than the other two is the Quai d'Orsay Corona. I would classify it as mild/medium but FULL of sweet, toasted tobacco flavors. They don't need alot of age to be appreciated and can be found very reasonably priced.


Better beautiful than perfect

I doubt he will. He stated that he's looking for a Corona. Monte #4's are petit coronas.

All the cigars you mention are PETIT coronas. The same size as the Boli he has. Roll Eyes

Of those marcas you mention, the Monte #3 and RyJ Cedros deluxe #2 are the coronas.

Is the Party Corona a smoke I can find with some age with some of the vendors that we use (I use some I am SURE that some of you guys use)?

Also, does the Party corona have the same flavor profile as the Party Short? I also have a box of these (and a box of PSP2s)... so I'm looking for something a little different.

Monte 3s have always been good to me. I second the QDO Corona.

I looked one place and the QDOs were over 200 for 25, I looked at another (both are legit) and they were 145. haven't seen that kind of difference in a while...
