This oily, strong and perfectly perfumed cigar is a classic already in my humidor! Great burn, aroma and taste. Worth every single dollar I would say.

The first time I had this blend I wasn’t blown away. That might have been a humidity issue on my part muting what this blend had to offer but this is a really great solid cigar. I’m glad I was able to get a fiver when the sale was going but I wish I had gotten more. The robusto is perfect for my commute and I just keep reaching for it. I should have gotten more when the sale was on but now I know to keep an eye on the emails. Shipping from the company was great as always.

This by far my favorite tabernacle. The spicy, oily wrapper on this is just magnificent. I get a mineral earthiness from this. A slight spice in the form of white pepper. I’ve had the lancero, robusto, toro and now the corona…. The corona is by far the best. The flavor I get from this is absolutely delicious. I always keep a few of these in my rotation!

This is a high end stick. The only downside in my end is that it has a little tad much of spice in the flavour that I would prefer. Regardless the complexity is insane and I’d recommend it to any experienced smoker to try it.

This is my favorite foundation blend and I prefer it in the corona or lancero vitola. Full flavor and medium strength are delivered by this fantastic cigar. The dark leaf provides lots of nuanced cocoa and spice flavors, while making a healthy amount of smoke. Always have some of these in my humidor.

The Tabernacle Havana Seed CT No. 142 is a medium-full bodied cigar with a complex flavor profile. The first half is dominated by woody flavors, with a dry nuttiness developing in the final third. The earthiness is present throughout, but the other flavors change over time. There is also a touch of toastiness, leather, and white pepper. The retrohale is full of white pepper, with hints of floral flavors, lime skin, and earthiness. The finish is long and satisfying, with notes of earthiness, leather, and creaminess.The cigar is well-constructed and burns evenly. Overall, I enjoyed the cigar. It is a flavorful cigar with a good balance of strength and complexity.

I really go back and forth on which tabernacle blend and vitola is my favorite. The David is a blast of flavor with notes of rich chocolate, leather, and citrus. The finish on these is amazing and always hits the spot. I’ve never had any burn issues with this size and it usually gives me about an hour of burn time. Check these out next time they’re in stock.

I absolutely love the Corona and David vitola of the Havana Seed wrapper line. You taste the wrapper less in the Toro vitola if you want a milder Havana Seed tasting notes.

One of the best Coronas on the market. The thick oily wrapper gives this smoke so much depth and brings flavors of coco, spice and cinnamon.
