OK, let me begin by saying that I praise very few cigars. But, I just got a box of SAC Coronas for $19 a box and this darn thing is every bit as good as any AF I have ever smoked!! I really thought I had lost my taste for DR cigars, preferring Nics and Hondos but this one is a combo of DR and Nic and is terrific. Dark wrapper, good, even burn and apparently has got some serious age on them because the cellos were really stained. I realize that I will have to take some crap from some of you for my opinion....but those of of you that know my taste in cigars, I give this one an outstanding!
