Alec Bradley Prensado Corona Gorda (5⅝x46)

The Alec Bradley Prensado Corona Gorda is part of one of the most highly regarded cigar lines of the modern era. The Prensado blend earned the title of Cigar of the Year in 2011, and this size delivers the same bold character and refined construction that made the series so respected.

Handcrafted in Honduras, this box-pressed cigar measures 5½ inches long with a 46 ring gauge. The highlight of the blend is a well-aged Corojo wrapper grown in Honduras’ Jalapa Valley, known for its rich color, natural oils, and concentrated flavor. The cigar presents a polished, upscale appearance with an oily wrapper and a clean triple cap that reflects meticulous attention to detail.

Flavor opens with notes of sweet wood and smooth coffee before transitioning into deeper earth tones and assertive spice. As the cigar develops, intensity builds, delivering a complex and full-flavored profile that experienced smokers will appreciate. While the opening flavors are approachable, the overall strength makes this cigar better suited for seasoned palates rather than those seeking a mild experience.

Construction is consistently dependable, offering a smooth draw and even burn throughout the smoke. The Prensado Corona Gorda stands out as a refined yet powerful option for smokers who value craftsmanship, depth, and classic presentation in a slightly slimmer format.
