---|
Though a few gnarly veins riddle this cigar, it's flavor is profoundly leathery with clear notes of coffee and nougat, and nuance hints of nuts and floral impressions. Interesting and complex. |

Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Jan 01, 2014 | Score: 93 The Bolivar Royal Corona is a standout smoke, one of Cuba's reliably flavorful robustos and a former Cigar Aficionado Cigar of the Year. Current production Royal Coronas are smoking extremely well, showcasing the traditional powerful complexity Cuban cigar aficionados have come to expect from cigars bearing the Bolivar name. Bolivars are named for Simon Bolivar, the liberator of South America, who is illustrated in the portrait at the center of each Bolivar band. The Royal Corona is a leathery and earthy smoke with a growing intensity, as well as notes of chocolate and spicy licorice. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Apr 01, 2013 | Score: 94 Highly expressive with a complex palate of leather and earth that becomes more intense as chocolate notes and spicy licorice flavors play off each other. Issue: Cigar Aficionado: Jun 01, 2012 | Score: 92 Slightly pressed with an easy draw. Prominent coffee bean flavors accentuate spicy, earthy elements and almond notes. |
