I started smoking cigars regularly about a year ago.

For whatever reason I gravitated toward Robustos fairly quickly and still enjoy that size. Recently, I have tried some coronas (Tats, Padillas, SP's) that I liked as much as their robusto counterparts.

I was wondering what other corona smokes could be recommended by you folks?

For non-Cuban cigars, I especially like the La Aroma de Cuba Coronas

One of my favorite corona's is the Partagas Black Label corona. At 5.5 x 45 I think it has all the punch and flavor of it's bigger RG brothers.

In addition to Peter's comment, I would add the following:

Bolivar Cofradia Cuban Corona
Taboo Dominican Maduro Corona

Others include Hirsh y Garcia Corona and AF Don Carlos #4 although it may technically be a PC.

It's a corona gorda (5 5/8" X 46) but I like the Illusione CG:4.

5 Vegas Classic (red label). Discovered about 1/2 a box of these buried in the bottom of the cooler, probably about 1.5 yrs. Awesome smoke and a perfect example of a NC that improves with a little age. Cheap too! :ss
