Anyway, I stop by my B&M shop today and they have a "New Arrival" sign up in the humidor along with a laminated print out of Cigar Aficionado ratings of Herrera Estili (Nicaragua) and it got a 93. Now, I had never heard of it, not sure who grows it, etc (I'm about to do some research) but I bought a handful, and man, it is really, really good so far. Nice and taught, good draw, slow burning, a bit of burn on my tongue, medium body. Highly recommended.

I love Willie Herrea's newest offering in the Herrea Esteli. I've tried various vitoa's in the line and for me the Corona is best. I made a box purchase of this size and have not been disappointed...I'm halfway thru my first box. I know it sounds crazy, but in this size in particular I get a hint of toasted marshmallow! I love that. It's a smooth, complex stick and one that I recommend to all my cigar friends. Construction and burn is near perfect in this size. Enjoy!
