Description
Crowned Heads Luminosa is another collaboration between Jon Huber and Ernest Perez Carrillo. To begin with, Nashville based Crowned Heads is headed up by four former CAO executives. After leaving CAO in 2010 they began producing unique cigars known for their Cuban-inspired packaging and blending. Today, the company remains committed to producing cigars of exceptional quality, flavor, and balance.
With attention to detail, the Luminosa contains a mystery blend of filler and binder leaves. What we know for sure is that this Crowned Heads cigar is one of the most popular blends the company produces. Setting out to make a mild to slightly medium bodied smoke that’s still packed with flavor and complexity, they definitely succeeded.
Results? Cigar Coop rates it @ 90. Blind Man’s Puff rates it @ 91. Cigar Authority rates it @ 93 and noted reviewer KATMAN give it a 94. His summary is spot on, ” The Luminosa is not a heavy cigar but smokes like one. Slow and steady as she goes. The complexity of the flavor profile is outstanding but that finish……it is almost the best part of the blend…it just keeps on chugging with no end in sight.”
To sum up, Crowned Heads Luminosa comes in 4 popular sizes of 20 count boxes. You can also grab a five pack to try them out.

Luminosa is probably one of Crowned Heads most talked about cigars. May have described it as one of the very best mild blends available. Not so much for its tempered strength, but for its sheer abundance of
powerful flavors. Other categorize it as a medium to full bodied smoke with the same flavor bomb appeal. I found it to be a light tasting starter that slowly increased to medium strength that began to yield an amazing intensity of complex flavors from the halfway mark to its finish. Think naturally sweet tobacco with peppery spices along with caramel and coffee beans.
