poorman Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 ....nudge nudge, wink wink Siglo VI is. Can't afford to smoke those daily, but leaning towards making the coro my daily. Well, that and the Hoyo #2. Obviously we all have different preferences, so no throwing darts here. Lately, the one that ends up in my hands when I want a tasty is the coro. The others, Monty's, Boli's, are taken to the course anymore. Still have a soft spot for Partagas at home. (Read: Stirring the pot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olotti Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Haha. I'll be the first to post the "well it depends on your tastes" post but it really does. I've only smoked maybe 10 CoRos in 9 yrs mostly and they've been good for sure but price point with these is an issue for me especially when I love the Boli line and I can get almost 2 boxes for the price of one box of CoRo's. Even if I had a box of CoRo's they wouldn't be a daily or even weekly for me more like a one every couple months type smoke but I only smoke cigars 2-3 days a week anyway.

Colt45 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Stir it up.... For me Cuban Cohibas are the emporer's new clothes.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikesupremedunk Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Cohiba is my favorite marca yet I've only had 1 coro so far. Smoked 1 ROTT when I got it a month or two ago, and haven't had one since. It was good for a fresh cigar (nov 12) but I feel like I'm wasting it if I smoke too many young so going to check in on them every 6 months or so. They are too expensive as a daily cigar for me, but if that's what makes you happy then go for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reevzy Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I've never tried the robusto, been thinking about it a lot lately though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rye Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I tend to fall into the "love them but don't smoke many" category. Time (and funds) will tell if I start leaning toward them more in the future. I'll take an SLR regio, or a D4 tho!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Festa Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hmmm? Let me put it this way...CoRo is one of the best things ever. Just not "the" best thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC4 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I used to dislike Cohiba and not understand the big deal about Cohiba. So had a few Siglo IIIs Tubo from 2008 which were just sitting around in my humidor. When I last tried them, wow, amazing. Which made me to buy and try CoRo, 2012. I tried them fresh, and amazing cigar, even for being so fresh. Now, Cohiba is all I smoke; here is what I have, Siglo III, CoRo, BHK 54, and today CPE arrived, which I can't wait to try.

Ptowncigar Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Yes I'm also a huge fan of the Coro. A Coro from a year ago was the most flavor cigar I have ever experienced, however I find myself chasing that cigar. Never smoked one near as good. And I find myself hoarding these. I buy boxes and not dare touch them, hoping with age they turn into the cigar I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramon_cojones Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Love coros, definitely one of the better cohibas. Give me a coro over all the blinged out ones but you need to smoke 2012s fresh or put them down for awhile. I used to be the same with the brand but there are a few great gems in there you just have to look past the smoke and mirrors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surucipe Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Love Coro! First CC I had was a Coro and was immediately drawn to the dark side. I tend to smoke Cohiba's (not just Coro) mostly on festive occasions. I just don't see them as a daily cigar, great job HSA marketing dept!

laficion Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I don't know why,but I'm a Corona Gorda Guy. LOL LOL. i've been smoking them since the 70's ,so, I guess I really enjoy them. There Is nothing like a HdM Epicure No. 1 for me ,(I guess It's a question of your tastes)and I will be smoking them up to the day that I die, and after.lol lol Thank you.

BRAC Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 CoRo's are great! However, I'm in the same boat as olotti regarding the price point. They are too expensive to be a daily smoke. I think it's a once every 2 to 3 month sort of smoke for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cohiba Stevie Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Love the cohiba robusto Hopefully a nice box shows up in tonight's sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCgarman Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I can get 2 boxes of RASS for one box of CORO. I will take the RASS any day over any other cigar. It is by far my favorite, hands down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainQuintero Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 With 5 years on then they are one of the best cigars out there for me, the only problem is that wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsoftz Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I am relatively new to CCs and had a few CoRo which I liked but definitely did not see what the big deal was. Then I got a few from Rob's single sale a few weeks back.. First two I probably didn't wait long enough after delivery for them to recover. The third one I had two nights ago and it was amazing. Great experience and had a lot of the signature Cohiba flavors on display in top form. It blew my mind and I now must have a box.. One more single left. Hopefully some show up tonight although I have a feeling there will be some healthy competition.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion21 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 All CoRo I have smoked were nothing to write home about. On the other hand, the Siglo VI has blown my mind. Not a big Cohiba buyer because of the premium, but I am sure there are boxes of every type they produce that could be stellar and some that will disappoint. I think if comes down to liking the "Cohiba Profile" if you can get that far. That is the only way to justify the premium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotusguy Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 lol really? i thought vegueros were junk but then maybe i haven't smoked enough (not that i'd care to) I'm with you - they ARE junk. Piss-poorly constructed, ugly, junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramon_cojones Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 My favorite line from one of the warehouse wrap ups was "fonseca...who cares" hahahaa same thoughts about vegueros, a buddy gave me some when I first started smoking and to say they were not memorable would be a compliment..so many good cigars out right now it's hard to care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeypots Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 With 5 years on then they are one of the best cigars out there for me, the only problem is that wait! X2I love Cohibas but hate the wait. Five years seems to be the minimum for my tastes. Cohiba may need time more than any other brand to come fully into their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me crazy, but the POU AGO 12 box I have are smoking incredibly well right now, they do have a little mongrel to them if that is the right term, no harshness. Although I have never had an aged CoRo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
