The Super Corona vitola is evenly packed with a clean cap and an impeccable roll. The cold draw offers aromas of cocoa husk, sweet hay, and gentle spice. Upon lighting, the draw is smooth and consistent, producing dense, aromatic smoke. The burn line remains sharp with minimal touch-ups, and the ash forms tight, dark-gray stacks that hold well between taps, reflecting meticulous construction.
