Flor De D’Crossier Selection 512 Maduro Corona Gorda 1600 900 Luca Cominelli

The Flor De D’Crossier Selection 512 Maduro Corona Gorda is packed in tin cans that contain 20 cigars. Flor de D’Crossier launched the Selection 512 Maduro line back in 2018, and it is made of three sizes. One is the Corona Gorda, and the other two are the Coloniales (5 1/8 x 44) and the Hemosos No.2 (5 7/8 x 48). There is also a different version of this line, called Selection 512 Habano, an entirely different blend and comes in a much larger variety of sizes.

Flor De D'Crossier Selection 512 Maduro Corona Gorda

Flor De D’Crossier Selection 512 Maduro Corona Gorda: spices are perceivable in the cold draw. Once lit, the first few puffs deliver rich peppery notes.

The first third brings a mix of earth and spices to the palate, where the black pepper stands out, enriched with some chili spice. The strength is medium (3/5).

In the middle section, the flavor profile grows with notes of wood and leather. The spices are still the main flavors and become more intense. Strength increases a little bit (3.5/5).

The final part of the cigar doesn’t change in terms of strength and profile. The only addition is a hint of walnut and some balsamic nuances towards the finale.

Overall, the Flor De D’Crossier Selection 512 Maduro Corona Gorda delivers a spicy flavor profile, with the black pepper being the protagonist during the whole smoke. The evolution is not among the broadest but is perceivable during the three thirds—a nice cigar sold at a competitive price point.
