I bought a lot of 3 boxes. When they arrived, it was wonderful. The packaging and construction was excellent. Then the disappointment.....a little harsh for the first inch then it mellowed out. They have a nice even burn. But for some reason they don't maintain a very good coal on the end. The coal is even with the burn, and the ash gets very loose. Halfway through the stick, it became harder to draw. The taste became bitter, and gave me a nicotine burn on my tongue.This wasn't with just one box but all 3. I'll stick with my A Fuentes, and Romeo & Juliettes from now on (they are smoother and milder). Before I bid on anything else, I'll make sure I go to the tobacco shop and try them out first. This was worse cigar I have smoked to date. less

I completely disagree with Tennessee Tommy's review of this cigar. The only way his experience could have occurred, is if the cigars were allowed to dry out and/or were not properly humidified. I have been through over 4 boxes of these fine cigars and keep on ordering them, never to have one dissapoint me yet. It comes very close to my favorite cigar - the 1993 Vintage Macanudo, which my humidor is full of, but which I ration due to their difficulty to find. Having a China cabinet size humidor with active humidification controlled by a humidistat is critical to properly keeping my fine cigars, and I count the Plasencia Reserva Organica's among them and often chose one of them first when going for a smoke. That says a great deal, as my humidor typically has over 1200 cigars to choose from. The even burn, strong ash, wonderful aroma and creamy taste of this cigar is unparalleled. It is a fabulous smoke and a great value for cigar smokers with a mild cigar preference. I have several cigar smoking buddies who whole heartedly agree after I introduced them to this fine cigar, and they continue to order them today! We don't care what the cigar magazine ratings are, since they almost never give a mild cigar high marks. This is an excellent cigar and the Plasencia family should be proud! less

Bad taste, burn unevenly, wrapper peered off. Not worth for the money. They should be put together with other bundles less

The PRO corona is an impeccably constructed cigar with the same signature flavor of the rest of the Plasencia R.O. line, with a nice cool razor sharp burn, perfect draw and creamy smoke. Of the four that I have had the pleasure to smoke thus far, not one required a touch-up after the initial light. less

The first one started off with overtones of chocolate and coffee. It has an unusually complex flavor with some hints of citrus. The middle had a taste that I can only compare to one I have found in some fine late harvest desert wines. The last quarter had continuing fruity overtones and I smoked it until it burnt my fingers. The burn was uneven for the first half but it corrected itself after that. All in all, a very lovely, flavorful smoke. I will buy more! less

I have now smoked two of these and all I can say is, "What a waste of time!" Hard draw, won't stay lit (and yes my other cigars from the same humidor have no problem staying lit) bitter taste on the tongue that only gets worse the farther down you get. Overall not worth the time. Now, will someone explain to me the way cigars are priced. There are truly excellent cigars out there that sell for a fraction of the price of this one. I don't get it. less

I got one with a sampler. Nice appearance and beautiful layered ash. Lots of mild smoke with a tight draw. First impression - a disctint sweetness on the back of the pallette. There is a slight tingle that, if smoked too quickly could overwhelm the taste. Smoked slowly it is a mild, smokey, creamy stick. Just take your time and plan for at least an hour with this baby. I'll buy more. Did I mention - don't hurry. less

After giving this a try winning 5 Coronas on auction. They were well worth ordering a box for my humidor. One great mild cigar. less
