I smoked the Coronado a few months ago when we retuned from the RTDA; I thought to myself what a curse on me this cigar was. It burned perfect for almost two hours; I loved it but how was I going to fit this cigar into my schedule. The Coronado was not as full bodied as some of the the other LFDs but was still packed with flavor. The Coronado finaly arrived at our store several weeks ago and I was excited to smoke these again. I thought the Coronado was the best new Cigar of RTDA; there were some good showings from Rocky Patel with 1999 Vintage Connecticut and the Partigas Cifuentes from General. I got to smoke an experimental Cifuentes when I was in the Dominican Republic last January; it was phenominal but was toned down a little when it got to the RTDA still rather good.
The Factory Press II arrived shortly after the Coronados. Anyone who smoked the first Factory Press will not be disapointed in #2. Again, this is a long burning, full bodied Oscuro that in my opinion should be enjoyed with a nice dark rum. El Dorado 15 year was awesome with the FP II. The FP IIs are extremely limited, if you see them buy them.
Both of these new LFDs burn forever so plan ahead and remember, it is a special ocassion once you light up a good cigar.
