El Presidente Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 I had this question text to me from a great mate. H. Upmann Connoisseur A or Cohiba Siglo VI? Assuming both great boxes (HQ) from 2013/early 14. I gave him my opinion....wondering what yours would be?
Habana Mike Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Siglo VI but I'm flush on the A for now.... Both great smokes
Maplepie Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Connie A original release: definitely. 2014s are a tad too 'off' for me. But ah well... Will still vote for these
Bartolomeo Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 13 UPE Conn A and 13 BTO Sig 6 have treated me well....have not had any 2014 of either from memory...Conn A are cheaper....cant go wrong w either IMHO
Maplepie Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 13 UPE Conn A and 13 BTO Sig 6 have treated me well.... good one Ry. you remember so i don't have to! x2 on the box codes. there was another 13 box code for Connie As... can't remember but were also good. was it MUR? Can't remember. Sadly, i have boxes of neither. too skimpt!
Bartolomeo Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 good one Ry. you remember so i don't have to! x2 on the box codes. there was another 13 box code for Connie As... can't remember but were also good. was it MUR? Can't remember. Sadly, i have boxes of neither. too skimpt! Seen AUM, UPE, LUB, ALT for 2013 boxes 1
sharks Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Siglo VI always been a great cigar IMHO. Or he could always buy both
Maplepie Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Seen AUM, UPE, LUB, ALT for 2013 boxes ALT was what i wast thinking of. akin to the UPE, IMHO haven't seen a LUB until 2014...
Rye Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Man, tough call. I've been lucky to have smoked both, but maybe this is the excuse I need to revisit each and make a decision... To make a choice right now, I'd go Connie. Strictly based on price
Skyfall Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Real tough call! I don't think they are the same horse at all. If both are good, they both are hard to beat, but the HU A's are one of my favorites of the year for me right now. Reminds me of a shorter classic Sir Winston from the 90's! Classy and refined!
Lotusguy Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Connie A all the way - before they mess it up, which they invariably will. Siglo VI can always be had and they're more expensive to boot. 2
in0gravity Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 tough question. I like both. However I would give a slight egde to the Connie A.
PapaDisco Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 I'd go Siglo VI personally. The Connie A is a great cigar and I know friends that it's spot on for them, so this is no complaint against the cigar, just a personal preference. The Siglo VI also travels very well for me. Never plugs up in high heat/humidity situations. I was hoping that the IV would travel as well, but for now the cab I've got is just too young to smoke. If I could get a VI flavor profile in a IV format it would be perfect! 1
asmartbull Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Today the A is better and is likely to be for the next 5 yrs......after that! Your guess is as good as mine

joeskow Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 My HQ Sep 13 BTO Sig 6's have been sublime for such a young Cohiba, Perfect wrapper and construction. With time the 6's will likely be the best box in my collection.. Still have yet to try a Connie A but that day will soon come so I can't comment on which is better.
