Worth knowing
As grandiose as the Cuban mini Coronas from H.Upmann or Montecristo are - a reasonably priced alternative is always welcome, and of all things in this format range, quite a few non-Cubans are not that much cheaper. This one is! Smoking time about 25 - 30 minutes.
Flavors
Fantastic break cigar! A bit more pithy and grippy than the big ones, also a tad stronger, the HC convinces with particularly distinctive coffee flavor, which is here further in the foreground than the slight sweetness. This nevertheless comes through nicely and complements perfectly with a fine pinch of nutmeg, the spicy astringency of the cedar and a leathery component, which is only hinted at in the background in the thicker formats. Good medium-bodied, with a permanent hint of Sungrown-typical fruit aromatics, it never loses its balanced character. Amazing for the price!!

Diese Marke ist eine Eigenmarke des renommierten Importeurs Wolfertz aus Solingen bei Düsseldorf. Mit dem Vertrieb von unter anderem Alec Bradley, Nicarao, A.J. Fernandez, Oliva, Condega und Plasencia hat Thorsten Wolfertz seine Spürnase schon häufig unter Beweis gestellt. Was liegt dann näher als irgendwann seine guten Kontakte zu den Fabriken vor Ort "auszuspielen" und sich eine eigene Marke kreieren zu lassen beziehungsweise selber zu blenden?
