Punch - Coronations - Box of 25 Tubed
A box of 25 cigars, each in its own tube.
A medium-bodied mareva presented in a British racing green tube. H&F suggest it for outdoor pursuits such as shooting and fishing trips.
One of the oldest Havana brands, Punch was founded in the mid-19th century by Don Manuel López of Juan Valle & Co with an eye on the British market, where the humorous magazine Punch was in vogue. Mr Punch still appears on every box. Since 1931 it has been made alongside Hoyo de Monterrey, today at the La Corona factory, from Vuelta Abajo filler and binder. Flavour: Medium.
