Trinidad Coloniales Review:
Last year we had the chance of tasting the new Trinidad Colonials. This petit Corona is finished with a "perilla", excelent quality, taste and aroma. Great smoke with subtleness and complexity for real connoseurs. Would benefit of maturing for another two-three months.

Review #32:  This is my second review, and I must apologise for my last review. Let me clear a few things up here. This cigar is very complex, but it is subtle and very refined. This is a cigar to be appreciated by an experienced palette and a clean palette. It is not a cigar for late in the day, nor to be smoked with a strong alcoholic drink and certainly not for after dinner. If you smoke it in these circumstances you are not going to taste it's understated complexity. This is a cigar for early in the day. I smoked this one after breakfast with a clean palette, a light coffee and a weak gin and tonic. It is mild-medium flavour and body with a slick kaleidoscope of subtle flavours - sweet woods, coffee and cocoa develop down the smoke with notes of fresh vanilla and coconut developing later on with a spice on the nose which heightened in the final third. Of course, as has been noted, this is in an extremely well crafted cigar with a perfect burn and draw with a pleasant and light room aroma. This is a great cigar for lovers of the Dominican Davidoff mille series to step up a gear with added complexity and cuban flavour. I strongly recommend anybody who has not enjoyed this cigar much to smoke one in the early afternoon with a clean palette. This is a very delicious and refined cigar with complexity to the hilt. Still, however, the price is a little high. An early-in-the-day treat cigar for me; or a perfect regular morning cigar. A final note: I smoked this down to a half inch (!) before it even showed traces of becoming acidic, and my sense of taste and smell was actually heightened after smoking this cigar if you are looking for one. It just about left me wanting another, but was satisfying enough so that I felt I spent my time money wisely. :-) - Submitted by A. Dyer on May 11, 2006
Review #31: Well, This is not my top taste. I expected much more from Trinidads but so far the Montes are my best bit. I might bre ther only one all the times who ignores the Cohibas and Trinidads after dinner. But I know others love "real cuban smoke" too...
Anyway, not too bad...smile - Submitted by Dr. Thomas Wilm on January 6, 2006
Review #30: On 31 Dec 2005 - New Year Eve, I smoked my first Trinadad (Cuban) Coloniales (a Petit Carona size) and these are my views. The body and construction were beautiful and after using my Antique Cigar Screw type Piercer (I make 4 holes without damaging the ‘Cap’), the light was smooth, the ‘draw’ excellent and the ‘burn’ was even and steady. At first, the smoke was ‘immature’ and ‘bland’, really one-dimensional in complexity, but the aroma was ‘intoxicating’ and the taste was ‘medium strength’. A very nice cigar, finely crafted, evident with its smooth even burn. Complex tastes of cedar wood, a bit of cinnamon and a ‘dash’ of chocolate. The taste was ‘smooth as silk’ with no ‘bitter and/or spicy’ taste and no harsh feeling on the throat becoming of many Cubans. Again, a ‘very’ smooth cigar, reminding me of the Fundadores [The Founder]………a Very elegant smoke. This Cigar then began to ‘enhance’ the qualities above at the ‘half-way’ point (I couldn’t put it down. ) and ‘exploded’ with complexity as the Cigar got shorter. I can say, that I smoked this Cigar (after a ‘rest’) down ‘to the nib’ and truly enjoyed every puff……..truly in ‘a league in it’s own’.
Bottom line up front…………The Coloniales is now my everyday and festive Cigar.
Thanx and a Happy New Year 2006
Thank You
With Kindest Regards

Review #29: A dear friend supplied me with a Coloniale that had been taking a nap for over a year. And what a wonderful cigar! Age certainly helps these sticks (from what i've read here). My cigar was visually appealing with a smooth, veinless wrapper and the pre-light aroma and draw was delightful. Smoke was rich and the volume was perfect. This was my first experience with Trinidad and I must say the taste was very earthy and powerful. I ordered a box immediately! - Submitted by seadub on December 1, 2005
Review #28: I had much hope and expectations for this cigar, but it was a bit of a disappointment. All in all a good cigar, good draw, but a bit one-dimensional, almost boring. I also found it a fast burner. It was my first, so maybe my opinion may change... - Submitted by Patton on November 29, 2005
