The Plasencia Reserva Organica Corona, sports a nice cinnamon colored rapper, with a slightly redish hue. The wrapper is somewhat vainy, but the cigar has a nice flat cap. The draw is slightly tight. This Corona burns even with a clean white ash. Hickory wood, and spice, flood the nose throughout the burn. The flavor is earthy and sweet. Notes of toast and roasted nuts were also present on the pallet, throughout the burn. The cigar is mild to medium in strength, and the burn time is approximately 70 minuets. On a scale of 1 to 10 I'd rate this Corona 8.5 less

This cigar has a very natural taste. the first 1/4 has almost a dirt taste then develops a natural tobacco taste finishing up with a creme taste. The aspects of the cigar are great, good draw, even burn and a perfect construction. You can sit this down and come back to it 2 minutes later and it will still be lit. It will last you about 50 minutes if you take your time. enjoy! less

I cannot say enough good things about this cigar. The entire line is incredible, with the piramide being my favorite. They are described as mild, but I don't find them mild at all, I find them a solid medium "strength" and full bodied with many sbutle flavor changes that keep the cigar intersting from light to nub. Probably my favorite non-Cuban cigar. less

The pre-light scent was of a dark cocoa scent, mixed with other indistinguishable flavors. It lit easily, but the burn was pretty uneven all the way through. It didn't burn too hot or too cool though, which is nice. The flavor was interesting. Honestly, it's hard for me to really pinpoint a characteristic flavor, but that's not a bad thing necessarily. Both the aroma and flavor had so many various flavors that I couldn't really specify. I liked every inch, but it was not my favorite stick ever smoked. It did have lots of creamy smoke, and was more full-bodied than I expected from a mild smoke. If I could give it one flavor, I would say a VERY dark cocoa taste, but overall, don't make that your basis. Try it! It's interesting. less

Even burn, stayed lit to the end, great taste, nice aroma. I bought the 10 pack sampler to take on a cruise. Big mistake, should have taken a box. What a great smoke. Shared one with a new friend and he agreed. I can?t wait to get home and reorder. less

A.k.a. Barry Stats...the creator of acigarsmoker.com, is in my opinion a true cigar aficionado! I have found his reviews of many cigars to be spot on correct...he has the ability to put flavors into words. Except on this particular cigar, I'm sorry to say Barry...but your review of this cigar was doomed before it even started. You are as prejudice to this brand of cigar as is the KKK to our current president :-) I feel you just don't like the idea of organic period, and by not even giving it a low rating is evidence of that. Now...on the other hand, we have a guy by the name of Kent Surratt, I read his review of this cigar on cigar adviser, he claims that this cigar closely resembles the "Cuban Cohiba Robusto" in its heyday! Although I do strongly agree with Kent assessment that the Cuban Cohiba Robusto is no longer the cigar it once was, I respectfully disagree that this cigar could be compared with that cigar in anyway. So...we have one reviewer who pretty much hates it, and another who compares it to a Cuban legend! Well...like they say there is three sides to every story...here's the real side :-) first off...the presentation of this cigar is a class act. The construction....I would say, top-notch, a few veins, but nothing serious, well packed and no soft spots, and the cap is very neatly done. The pre-light...well first off, the cigar really captures and holds the characteristics of the Cedar sleeve, when I took a whiff of the foot, it had a wonderful scent of fresh and clean tobacco, a little sweet, and of course Cedar. Smoking the first half was great! As for flavor...again, a very fresh and clean tobacco and a little nutty with a slightly sweet finish. This cigar is a very smooth and mild one! If you're looking for complex flavors, this is definitely not the cigar for you. The last half before I finally put it down....was just as good as the first half, maybe a tad stronger, no harshness or bitterness at all! The burn on this cigar was razor-sharp the whole way through. To draw...was perfect. The ash...was a very light gray and well stacked! The aroma...was terrific with no ammonia scent. All in all...I give it a solid 90 out of a 100...a very decent cigar! less

Slightly more mellow than Nesticos, yet fuller in taste. Very smooth. A tasty short smoke. I would prefer a slightly easier draw. less

This is the best short smoke. I have purchased several boxes in the past couple of years because they are a staple in my humidor. One of the most consistant cigars on the market in taste, draw, burn and construction. Just before writing this I ordered the new Nestico Robusto and got a box of the organic Nestico free. less

I bought a 5-pack as a birthday present to myself -- and now I can't wait to purchase a 20-pack. This was just a wonderful, mellow smoke from start to finish -- a genuine delight. less
