First one of these I’ve smoked. Beautifully constructed and box pressed with a chocolate colored wrapper. From first light, this cigar had a full, round flavor. About one inch into it, a spiciness started to build that continued along the entire length. Never was there any harshness to the smoke. The spiciness did cause a "bite" on the tongue, but it was a good bite. Definately medium bodied, but without the power of the the Camacho Corojo, yet still full of flavor. The cigar smoked perfectly from the light to the toss. I am going to buy more of these.

Try one,

Last time I bought a full box this was it. Great for the rush hour drive too.

Great review. I love this cigar. Especially the Rothschild. One thing though. I'm still trying to figure out why they call this a Corojo when in fact it is Sumatran ??? Rare indeed

I heard recently that these Punch Corrojos will soon be gone. Anyone else?

These are a limited release cigar. They are released once a year in small numbers I believe in the summer.

well I smoked mine tonight during our first rain of April on my back screened deck. Listening to the tree frogs and the rain was very soothing. Very smooth start and I was enjoying it until the ceiling fan started to move along with the room at only 1/4th into the cigar. Put it this way I didn't finish the Samual Adams nor the cigar which I had too put out. After two walks in the rain stumbling around the yard and finally finding the house here I am writing this.

To say the least I now remember why I do not prefer Honduran filler. This cigar was by far the buzziest cigar I have had in years. Definitly not for a comuter car cigar in my situation as I would have been in an accident.

Call me a pansy but this one almost made me sick and pass out. Not for me I am now sure.

I had one of these given to me and they are on my short list of 'gars to pick up. Almost perfect for the drive home. However, I need to double check so send me a few that you're not using at the moment and I'll try to comfirm my initial opinion :0
