Por Larranga Double Corona
Origin: Honduras Por Larranga Double Corona
Size: 7.00 X 48
Wrapper: Ecuador shade grown

From JR Cigars:
Entirely reblended, the Por Larranaga has returned to its roots. It is once again a super-smooth, medium-bodied blend that never fights the palate, and brings relaxation to its smoker. This is a must-try cigar, as there is, once more, peace in a Por Larranaga.

Notes:

This is a really fine cigar. The Por Larranga is a brand name that has been around for over 100 years. The word "quality" and Por Larranga go together. This Honduran blend cigar features some of the best aged tobacco available. The wrapper is golden brown Ecuadoran grown Conneticutt shade wraper, and the binder and filler are Honduran. Flavor is on the mild side of medium; certainly milder than most Honduran cigars. The tobacco is well aged and not a bite anywhere. Construction is excellent. Burns smoothly and evenly all the way down. Not a defect in the entire box. (Incidently, the cigar boxes are crafted to resemble leather bound books with the words "Por Larranga" and the cigar size imprinted on the outer cover.) The Por Larranga is a really top rate cigar for those smokers looking for a mild to medium but flavorful smoke.
