"Now is the winter of our discontent,
made glorious summer..." by a 1998 R+J Corona from ak2000. Please pardon the drama; I enjoyed this vitola while watching Laurence Olivier in "Richard III". This cigar has a fine silky EMS wrapper, excellent construction, and a subtle pre-light aroma of cedar and cinnamon. The real fun begins after lighting the cigar; perfect draw, tight gray ash. The flavor, to me, was all cocoa, with some cedar. It burned beautifully throughout it's length, with the flavors intensifying along the way. The corona size somehow seemed to lend itself perfectly to this cigar, as the ash remained hot and even, with nary a relight. Nub city. "Was ever a woman in this humour wooed, was ever a woman in this humour won?"... Beats me, but I bet Bill Shakespeare was smoking a Romeo+Julieta when he penned "Romeo and Juliet". Thanks ak2000!!
