Guest Nekhyludov Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Dimensions: 52 x 5 7/8" Box Code: LTB AGO 13 Thus large cigar has an attractive, bright, colorado wrapper with a fine leathery texture. The construction feels a bit soft at the foot, with visible gaps in the bunching. Otherwise, well constructed - stick straight, with a nice rollers dimple. It lights easily and produces an even burn and a flaky gray/white ash. The initial profile is mild, grassy, with a bit of earth. The aroma is pleasantly spicy. After a bland start, characteristic Cohiba flavors emerge at the beginning of the second third, with a floral white pepper note. A profound shift occurs near the midpoint. A fuller, leathery base emerges. The floral lemongrass and white pepper sharpens. The final third loses some pepper, but an almond paste note emerges over a rich, leather base. The aroma finishes with a sea salt note. Pairs well with Sachang Lapsong. Beautiful smoke, but a lesser representation of the marca.

TheMonk Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 A bit surprised by your score, I actually find the Sig VI one of the best Cohibas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think I'm in the minority on this one. The SigVI just never really clicked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
