Punch Double Corona Overview
The big daddy cigar from the Punch brand, the Punch Double Corona is filled exclusively with luscious Vuelta Abajo tobacco. It measures a very generous 7.6” long and 49 ring gauge, with a burn time approaching two hours.
Smoking a Punch Double Corona
This cigar looks the part in its chocolate-hued wrapper. It’s as hard as a rock in hand and the draw starts a little tight. But it soon opens out, delivering big complexity and power.
Punch cigars tend to be less spicy than other Cubans and the Double Corona is no exception. The first third starts with dark chocolate notes that veer into cherry. Heavy earth undertones feature throughout and the flavors turn darker and more robust in the final third. The smoke remains creamy without excessive harshness.
It’s an immersive smoke and the flavors vary by vintage, while always staying in the medium to full-bodied range.
Cigar Value
Punch Double Coronas are superb value for their size. You get almost two hours of burn time, all of it prime Vuelta Abajo tobacco. They age exceptionally, which is good because not everybody can fire through a Double Corona every day. They will gain their fuller flavors after two years of aging.
Punch Double Corona Experience
The rich flavors of the Double Corona pair well with a variety of drinks, including rum and coffee. Since it’s a medium-to-full cigar with creamy smoke, try including a little milk in your coffee to keep it from overwhelming the flavors of the cigar.
