Default Re: Famous Private Selection Nicaraguan Corojo

These are a real sleeper, especially around this board and what used to be CS, but booyyyy are they DAMN good. I've said it once, and I'll say it again, the corona size of these is eerily similar in profile to the brown label tats, but not quite as spicy, and a bit sweeter, which I happen to like a lot. These have launched themselves into my new favorite as of late, and those who like nic puros, Pepin corojo stuff etc.... would do well to pick up a box, especially the corona size. Tabacalera tropical stuff is pretty damn good even when it doesn't want to burn, which these DO burn perfectly, but when you get the flavor and the construction, its heaven. Great review man.
