Olmec Maduro Double Corona

Cigar Specifications
Tasting Review
The Olmec Maduro Double Corona opens with a bold, full-bodied profile, delivering an immediate surge of dark chocolate, espresso, and earthy black pepper intertwined with undertones of molasses and charred oak, creating a rich and commanding introduction. The retrohale intensifies the experience with bursts of baking spice, leather, and a hint of dried fig, adding both warmth and complexity to the blend. In the second third, the cigar deepens with notes of roasted walnut, cocoa powder, and a creamy sweetness that tempers the spice while preserving its robust core. The final third crescendos with concentrated espresso crema, bittersweet cacao, and lingering smoky cedar, leaving a long, resonant finish that maintains power without sacrificing refinement.

Construction and Draw
The dark San Andrés Maduro wrapper, slightly toothy and generously oily, is flawlessly applied over a Nicaraguan binder and aged Nicaraguan filler tobaccos from the Jalapa and Estelí regions. The Double Corona vitola is rolled with precision, offering an even, consistent draw and producing thick, aromatic plumes of smoke. The burn line remains sharp and steady throughout, while the ash holds firm in long, dense silver-gray stacks, a testament to top-tier construction.
Whisky Pairing Recommendation
The ideal whisky pairing for the Olmec Maduro Double Corona is GlenDronach 21 Parliament, whose sherried richness of dark fruit, cocoa, and spiced oak mirrors and elevates the cigar’s deep chocolate and espresso profile.
