Havana Honeys Honey with my second ever cup of Mexican coffee in the dark. The cigar was better than the cuppa.

I haven’t been overly impressed with most of the Mexican coffees either, there’s a couple of regions that produce some good coffee but it’s htf

Cohiba Siglo II

Extremely tasty as usual. One of my favorite Cohibas as they burn close to an hour which is my preferred time length, and are amongst the cheapest Cohibas.

Draw was excellent.

Burn was off the entire time in spite of repeated corrections.

Wrapper peeled from the head to about a 3rd of the way down.

Still a tasty smoke to start my day even with the burn and construction problems

Rancho Luna Maduro Robusto

Earth, coffee, campfire wood, and light chocolate with a hint of spice

I'm learning that stuff coming from the JRE factory definitely get better with three months or more. This one is way better than the first one I smoked, but could probably use a couple more months.

Good question, Chayse. Though, this is my first and only Nica.
Maybe Michael will have the answer you seek.
In my opinion, the aganorsa leaf version is a far smoother smoke however I prefer the original version as long as they have sufficient age on them so they have lost any harshness.

Diamond Crown Maximus Double Corona No.1

Unsure of age, but the cellophane was fairly yellowed

At 8x50 its an imposing cigar

Very tasty and good draw,burn and construction

Yet another solid smoke from Diamond Crown

Man O War Puro Authentico

I honestly believe these are meant to be smoked young. With two weeks rest it has a zingy spice with just enough fruitiness to fall closer to cayenne than black pepper. A nice wood and earth backed up with a dose of roasted coffe.
These are excellent, your post made me think of them again
