Cigar Review: J. Fuego 777 Zero Corona
The latter, the subject of today’s review, hit the scene in 2010 as a milder counterpart to its 777 (pronounced “triple siete”) brethren. It sports the same Nicaraguan binder and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos—two-thirds corojo and one-third criollo—but this time is enveloped in a golden Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper.Four standard vitolas are available: Belicoso, Corona, Robusto, and Toro. I picked up a handful of Coronas (5.5 x 46) at my local tobacconist here in Chicago for about $4.50 apiece. Each cigar comes complete with a nicely executed cap, an oily wrapper with thin veins, and an aroma of hay.
First, what I liked about the 777 Zero Corona. Establishing an even light is very easy and, from there, the construction is better than what you’d expect from a sub-$5 cigar. The burn is straight and requires no touch-ups, the draw is smooth, and the gray ash holds tight pretty well. On top of this, the base flavor of coffee, cream, and roasted nuts is nice.
But this cigar is not without its drawbacks. For one, I found the spice on the lips to be unpleasant at times (I wasn’t expecting this at all). Also, even when smoked slowly, a hot sourness creeps in from time to time that overshadows the profile. And, maybe it’s just me, but I think the Corona tastes a little green and a lot less complex than the 777 Corojo or Maduro.
In the end, the J. Fuego 777 Zero Corona is an affordable choice for those who seek an Ecuadorian Connecticut cigar with more kick than usual. While it has many positives, though, it doesn’t quite live up to the 777 name. That’s why I’m awarding it three stogies out of five .

That cigar encouraged me to delve deeper into Fuego's relatively young brand. J. Fuego by the Miami-based Tabacos SA company, as it is called, was launched in 2006 with the help of the Plasencia family. Prior setting off on his own, Fuego had gained
When I finally lit this corona extra I found a medium- to full-bodied blend (though I can certainly see how some would consider it full-bodied). I was struck by the sweetness that this cigar displayed in the first half. Cafe au lait, semi-sweet
You can also use a blow dryer. The cutting action will be greatly improved. If you have a dull, plastic, single-blade guillotine, throw it away and buy another one. There's no use ruining a $5 cigar trying to avoid buying another $2 cutter.
For this combination they selected cigars Sancho Panza (medium strength, Corona Gigante) and Bolivar (an Extra Corona, a brand between medium and thick in size and strong strength.) For his part, the deputy general manager of Hotel Presidente (of the

The EP Carrillo Short Run 2011 is a full bodied smoke with a medium strength. It starts out very full in strength but mellows to medium as it is smoked. The full bodied flavors last throughout. The blend is Nicaraguan Dominican tobaccos with an Ecuadorian wrapper. Flavors of dry spice, rich wood and coffee abound with a subtle sweetness I love in full bodied cigars. The sweetness just seems to be a perfect counterpart to the spice.
