Rafael Gonzalez M. Coronas Extra Review:
If we take a look at other Rafael Gonzalez M. cigars, this is the biggest stick we are able to find. With a perfect draw and combustion, many smokers agree that this cigar is the best Coronas Gordas in the whole market. Grassy and dark chocolate notes greatly balanced with medium tobacco taste.

Review #13: 1st 1/4 was light in body but had a floral quality to the lighting of the foot, especially when blown through the nose then an interesting toasted bee pollen flavor began to emerge with light spice. 2nd 1/4 was double cappuccino,wet,not like a French latte’ with too much milk, but espresso and foamy milk. 3rd. 1/4 here comes the pecan under tone with an odd sensation of semi-sweet hints of pink salmon drizzled with the oil of crushed cherry pit. Yeah ,i know, i'm going off. Box is an 01 from factory PB…. something or other. Firm, but not rock hard, no soft spots, full of flavor. Aside from the Poo…Poo! crowd this is a common mans Cuban. Quality, oodles of smoke, perfect with Sunday morning coffee, that lazy afternoon w/ a mint julep in Georgia or a Pinot overlooking the San Fran. bay in spring. Go git some! Wishing you enjoyment i am Z. tha P. - Submitted by zeebo on May 8, 2008
Review #12: An underated "insider" cigar which ages well and smokes anytime as good as the upmanns or partagas. probably the best vitola of the brand. nutty and smooth with lots of smoke. Nice burn , average construction. value for money. Recommended - Submitted by Duncan on February 22, 2008
Review #11: Smoked one from a box SUA Sept 00. Even burn, rich flavorful smoke and a long finish. - Submitted by joerose on January 20, 2008
Review #10: I bought a box a couple months ago, date code SEP 06, and was very disappointed. The appearance of the cigars was absolutely beautiful with a smooth milk chocoate colored wrapper, beautifully rolled. But at least half of them were so tightly rolled that I nearly collapsed a lung trying to get some smoke. The Corona Gorda vitola usually has no problem delivering a quality draw, so I was shocked at the number of sticks that were useless to attempt an enjoyable smoke. I have tossed so many that it's a waste of money and very frustrating. The good ones were very good with rich but not overpowering Habano flavors ... a really nice and smooth medium body smoke. But I refuse to fight with a cigar that requires massive suction to get a feeble trickle of smoke. - Submitted by jkk on November 29, 2007
Review #9: Best RG i have smoked. From 2001, these have a delicious grassy aroma with notes of coffee and roasted flavours. Gets ever so spicy and a little salty toward the end. Good all the way down, but mutates a trifle too little. Perfect construction. - Submitted by Sortemand on March 21, 2007
