La Gloria Cubana Corona These taste okay and appeared to arrive in good shape but they don't burn well. I let them sit in my humidor for a few days to acclimate and have smoked 5 so far. Four of the five have not burned well. They keep burning down the sides. Lots of the smoke gets wasted when you keep having to light the unburned side and then break it off. I don't think I'll try them again. 2 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Love the consistency in this smoke. Glad I found as my daily go to. Look forward to future JR Alterrnate finds. 4 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Excellent overall; the draw is very good as well as the construction. The flavors are good as well; of course not like a Cubano but nevertheless a very good enjoyable quality smoke especially for the price. Draw is key and very good as already mentioned ; the wrap is a nice chocolate color that lacks veinage (thankfully). Further the cigar is packed well i.e. not squishy or mushy. Flavors will always vary because smoking is subjective but usually hints of cedar wood and coffee bean are prevalent. It is excellent to pair with coffee espresso or a latte. Bourbons or Cognac are also good with this cigar too. 4 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Horrible. Half the cigars were dried out when they arrived. Never order these again. 1 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona My favorite. Good flavor good draw good price! 5 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Tried and tried on this smoke. Get lots of tunneling and wrappers coming apart. Also it’s a smoke I have to hit very lightly or it gets bitter to the point it’s unsmokable. It may just be the bundle I bought but I’m unwilling to try again Mild flavored cigar with decent taste When burns correctly. 2 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Just ordered these on a whim and a price wow first one smoked all is good Cubano land. Closest thing I have had since my real Cuban many years ago. This daily smoker has just had a change of venue very impressed. Just a beautiful smoke try it you’ll like it.... 5 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona I reorder this smoke as it is consistently good; once in a while there is a throw-away stogie but overall this is a very good quality and enjoyable smoke. The bland is decent somewhat medium-body and usually burns well and thus has a good draw. Very good smoke for the price and not inconsistent as many of the JR Alternate's in which I've had to throw out 2-4 per bundle but again not with this blend or stogie. 4 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona no flavor tastes like cardboard 1 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Nice chewy thick feeling to the smoke.... about 6 on the pepper/spice meter. Hints of brown sugar/vanilla. Age will certainly help this batch like most of the JR Alt's. But man they are worth getting a couple of bundles and aging at home. Honestly I am tired of spending $8-$10 for a treat cigar and having them taste mediocre.... Occasionally they are worth their price but I have been burned more often than not. Once you find an Alt blend you like stock up and reap the benefits. Currently my fav's are this one and the JR Cuban Alt to Romeo Y Julieta Club King. The Romeo has a bit more kick and lighter body to it.... definitely a different blend. 4 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Great everyday smoke and a great price. 4 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona Draw Construction Flavor and Consistency is excellent. Burns a little fast but first one-third has excellent notes of nuts cedar and several unknown flavors. 4 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona excellent smoke and value for the money. 5 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona If you’re looking for a good cigar that lasts 40 minutes or so, you should consider this cigar. If your wife allows you to smoke in the house, you will find this cigar smells wonderful. Outside, just keep it out of the wind as with most cigars that I ever smoked or you will burn unevenly. 5 5 1
La Gloria Cubana Corona In general the JR Cuban Alternatives are pretty good. The La Gloria Cubana corona was outstanding. Well constructed, great draw and strong enough to make you sit up and take notice. The aroma and taste lent themselves to a great after dinner cigar. Very "cubanesque". 5 5 1
