La Aurora Corojo 1962 Gran Toro - Cigar Review by Kaplowitz

"Have you Kaplowitz'd to-day?"


La Aurora Corojo
WRAPPER: Dominican Corojo (Cibao Valley)
BINDER: Ecuadorian
FILLER: Dominican (Cibao Valley), Nicaraguan

FORMAT: Gran Toro (Gordo) 658
ORIGIN: Dominican Republic
STRENGTH: Medium

NOTES: Creamy nuttiness, diner cup of joe -- cream & sugar.  Pale toasted oak on earthen undertones. Muted delivery to the point of being somewhat bland. Lacking complexities tho offering some warm depth of note. "Attainable." Seems understuffed and exhibits a bit of a hollow draw. Burns on a fast wobble. Ash cracks near mid-point, tunneling is narrowly averted.

FINAL GRADE: B
A 90-100 B 80-89 C 70-79 D 60-69 F 0-59
