Crowned Heads

Coroneta Habano

Be it though the name ‘Coroneta’, derived from ‘coronet’ which means a small or relatively simple crown reserved for the lower ranks of nobility, when it comes to the blend of which its named, the notion is a paradox of sorts. While fitting in a way, the blend supersedes that of its nomenclature as it is more than prosperous and is the pinnacle of cigars as it relates to the Cuban-esque style. Coroneta as aforementioned is the first brand hailing from two different countries by way of Crowned Heads. The blend sees co-founder Jon Huber executing his vision to offer the cigar community two distinctive blends made at separate factories. Featured here is the Habano. It features a smooth Ecuadorian Habano wrapper atop a Nicaraguan binder and filler. The Coroneta Habano is a blend that understands the new aged cigar smoker. While they want new and innovative blends, they also want the quality and dedication of a traditional Cuban cigar as nostalgia is a big factor for this current generation. Co-founder Jon Huber states: “The concept of simultaneously introducing one brand in two expressions from two different houses is something entirely first-time for us.” said Jon Huber, co-founder of Crowned Heads, in a press release when the cigars were announced in March. “The Habano version from NACSA was actually final and production ready back in the Spring of 2022, but we decided to hold it back. Ultimately, we felt so strongly about the Coroneta brand that we tapped the ‘Godfather of Boutique Cigars,’ aka Ernesto Perez-Carrillo, to partner with us on developing the maduro version. I think the Coroneta brand achieves what we excel at, which is, seamlessly blending tradition and history with premium modernity.” Finding that perfect and harmonious balance, the blend appeals to both cigar aficionados looking for a contemporary yet traditional cigar. Helping to execute the blend’s stature, the cigars are graced by the guidance of Raul Disla, a master cigar crafter who runs the NACSA factory in which the cigars are handmade. The three Vitola offering is well suited as the names refers to various crowns and ranks of the British nobility during the 16th century with each of the sizes being named for headdresses worn by lower ranking members of nobility. Available for purchase are the Earl measuring 5x52, Duke measuring in at 5.50x54 and Baron 6x56, all available in counts of 20 and housed in beautiful and traditional wooden boxes with each cigar boasting a red and golden ring with the Coroneta logo. The result is a medium-bodied cigar showcasing an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and a covetable three country blend core of Condega, Estelí, and Jalapa, Nicaraguan fillers. Emanating through its smoke is a zesty and captivating profile reminiscent of old-world Cuba. Expect tasting notes of toasted wood and cabinet spice upon ignition, debuting with the essence of gingersnap, bright coffee bean, and tangy sourdough bread.
