Cohiba Reserva Seleccion

[rp99pts]

Anyone have one of these? Just curious about this box of 30. They seem quite available still but rarely hear anything about it. I would like to hear others opinions on this 2003 release...Some pics too would be great...

I haven't had any personally, but pretty much every review I have seen on these is that they are not worth the tag. It makes sense as they either made a billion of them or they suck, cause you don't see any other vintage cohibas banging around at or below retail.

IMO, they are a fantastic Cohiba at a great price.

I was gifted one a few weeks ago and was very unimpressed overall, especially for a Cohiba "LE".

I see many divided opinions on these sticks. This tread should prove interesting.

I also see a ton of these still available.

I figured there were some issues with them. i've seen the boxes avail for around the $500-$600 range. The presentation is nice and the cigars are aged....You would think they would get picked up in fast, but that doesnt seem to be the case...

I don't have any firsthand experiences with these, but I remember reading that the boxes from November and December 02 are awesome and the boxes from early 03 not so much.

I usually take a box with me when I head away on travel. I like the variety of cigars.

I sound like a broken record. A great box is a fantastic experience. An average box a so so experience. No doubt overproduced but there are some gems amongst them.

I like the box they came in.

*No, haven't had any - don't have a bazillion dollars to spare (as that was the going price for them when they first came out). But I do want to thank you all who have tried them for making me feel better - as the prognosis about them was not that good.

I was gifted one last year and I would have to say it was great.

Great opportunity to sample a variety of cohibas.

The pyramids blew me away and I quicky sourced more.

Spose like anything by Habanos they can be hit and miss maybe.

No pics soz as the box is empty

I think this sums them up pretty well as I see it. I would not buy these again! I still have some stashed somewhere and since I don't believe in the tooth fairy, or that bad (mediocre) cigars get better, they will likely 'rest' for a long time... I think the Medias Coronas are the best in the box. I just opened a box of Bolivar Coronas that put these cigars to shame. -Piggy
