CoronaConstruction is very good, excellent draw, relatively mild body, not particularly spicy, lots of smoke. The Corona is a nice size and about a half hour to 45 minutes or so smoking time. A good value, I'll be buying another box.551

CoronaDid not expect so much STRENGTH from this little bitty smoker.
Great construction
Burned excellent
first third was so Strong with pepper II almost put it down
second third tamed down considerably and became a good rich AJF that I enjoy...LOL
last third it picked up as the first only thicker in pepper.
I picked up a box and the rest of these will REST a LONG TIME before I spark another one up. Maybe a long vacation will tame these down..
That 2nd third was excellent - like a rich habano451

CoronaI let these rest a good while. They did not tame down and still very robust in the first third, much better in 2nd third, and the final third was much more pleasant than the first time. In the meantime I picked up a 6x54 box pressed just to see if this helps it smooth out and calm down. It's been resting for two months now.
Not for the faint of heart and definitely eat before smoking ..451

CoronaIf you’re a fan of the Samurai line by AJF, this is a must-have for your humidor. It offers a quicker experience while delivering a concentrated flavor profile similar to the larger vitolas.551

CoronaTasty, a bit mild, good draw, well constructed and one of my daily go-to's. I particularly enjoy them with morning coffee. It's a hidden gem by A. J. fernandez and J. R. how can you go wrong.551

Samurai Corona cigars are a JR exclusive offering produced by AJ Fernandez: one of the most famous cigarmakers in all of Nicaragua. The brand focuses on the Samurai's thousand-year-old moral/philosophical code of "Bushido" which is Inspired by the writings of Miyamoto Musashi. Bushido emphasizes standing tall with honor, courage, mastery of martial arts, and loyalty to a master. In this case, AJ Fernandez has created a magnificent premium cigar that’s certain to find a permanent home in your humidor. This classic (5 x 44) C...orona is deftly rolled at AJ’s factory in Nicaragua using a combination of rare Criollo and Piloto Cubano long filler tobaccos from Nicaragua covered by a Criollo binder and a beautiful, silky smooth, Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. The end result is a medium-to-full bodied smoke laced with luscious notes of earth, white pepper, leather, and cinnamon, backed by a rich caramel sweetness on the finish. Order a box of Samurai Corona cigars today and enjoy yet another masterful creation from AJ Fernandez that we are honored to feature in our star-studded lineup of JR exclusive brands.
