Colt45 Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 Singles, no codes Construction: excellent, nice and firm Wrapper: light caramel in color, smooth, but with a fine tooth, no sheen, lightly veined Draw: perfect! good resistance without being tight. The burn was nearly razor straight, with fantastic smoke volume. Every cigar should draw and burn like this one did Taste: first third was all latte creaminess, with underlying spice. After that, it settled into a more earthy, cedary, nutty profile, with slight hints of raisiny fruit, that did not last. The last third became darker, much more earthy and musky. Overall, this was a great cigar. Though it still showed hints of youth, it was smooth and quite refined, which I've found with Cohiba in general. I can only imagine what these are like with some time on them. A solid 90, which I'm sure will go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Nice review and I agree on most points especially the fine construction found on the Sig. IV. I do find these on the med-mild side and overall prefer the III and VI. I will switch back and forth the Boli CE when a corona gorda is desired.

dragon Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 The Sig IV seems (to me anyways) to be one cigar that actually becomes stronger with age. I recently smoked a couple I had leftover from a box I bought about 3 yrs. ago and they seemed to now have even more strength and intense flavors than at 4-6 months of age, no mellowing whatsoever.

Fatshotbud Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Never much of a Cohiba man until I had my first Siglo - enjoy these over the regular line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRKS Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I have friends who are some very experienced Cohiba fanatics and they swear by the Siglo IVs.... therefore, it must be me, these just never did it for me - I have tried several with varying amounts of age on them from a few years to 6 months --always found them way too mild (although I do agree that the construction on these is beautiful.) But that's just another reason that this thing of ours is a great hobby; tastes vary as do people and to me the real fun is in the journey to discovering what you really like..... Thanks for a well presented review... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
