The verdict
The Punch Royal Coronations is a richer, medium-to-full smoke from Punch's Punch (Cuba) line. It's a Cuban corona wrapped in Cuban at 5.7 in × 43.
On the palate, expect cedar, cocoa, and roasted coffee, leaning earthy. Plan on roughly 55 minutes from light to nub.
It pairs naturally with espresso, aged rum, and porter. If you're newer to cigars, work up to this one rather than starting here.
The Punch Royal Coronations is the heavyweight of the brand's tubed Coronations trio. In the Corona format — 5.7 inches by 43 ring gauge — it offers more length and noticeably more body than the standard Coronations, while keeping the same convenient cedar-lined aluminum tube.
What it tastes like
This is a rich, medium-full Havana. The all-Cuban blend brings cedar, cocoa and roasted coffee up front, with a firm backbone of spice and a leathery depth that the lighter Coronations doesn't reach. It's well balanced and full of the classic Punch earthiness, smoking for around an hour. Think of it as the Coronations grown up — same DNA, more weight behind it.
Who it's for
If you've enjoyed the regular Punch Coronations and wished it had more punch, this is the answer. It's a smoke for someone comfortable with fuller Cuban cigars who still wants the practicality of a tube. Those after even more body should look at the flagship Punch Punch.
