Cohiba Siglo I ETU JUL 16 (CWRC)

[Siberian Bear]

This is probably 9th or 10th one from the box I got sometime ago from 24:24, all so far been good. Punched and checked the draw - perfect amount of resistance. Pre-light flavor is mainly mild tobacco.

First third - takes off with mild body and creamy coffee flavors. Maybe a little grass here and there. Creaminess reminded me of a CoSho I smoked after couple of weeks of non-smoking due to a flu. Usually CoSho is not creamy to me but that time was quite unusual but very pleasant.

Second third - more body at this point, keeping coffee flavors but cream is gone, replaced by sweet and grassy notes.

Last third - solid medium body, darker coffee, grassy sweetness became light honey, hints of bready/yeasty flavors, quite nice finish for this little fella. 

89 points due to some funky burn I had to fix with my torch couple of times, though previous ones from this box were about 90-92 on flavor + perfect razor sharp burn.

Smoking time was 55 min.
