Cohiba Piramide BRE NOV 17 (SMRW)

[nKostyan]

 

Last year these sets were very cheap in the store of a mutual friend from Hong Kong

I was interested in trying it out because there are some rare Cigars that can only be bought in this set. One of them is the Cohiba Piramide.

I smoked this cigar during a lively video conference conversation with friends, which is probably why I couldn't pay close attention to tastes. But I tried... Or maybe it's just a linear cigar just for such cases.

The beginning is low strenght, weak body.

Wood, sweet herbs. Next, I can distinguish Eastern spices, caramel, and biscuit.

I found this pyramid characteristically boring as most regular pyramids of other brands (excluding Monte #2). The cone of the Cigar head should concentrate the stream of smoke on the tongue, making the taste more intense, but this cigar was of average strength and body.

At the same time, it is a pleasant cigar, similar in character to H. Upmann no.2 - light linear unobtrusive. Great for background Smoking, when the cigar should not distract from communication.

Smoking time - 80 minutes

Rating: 4/5 stars

Thanks for the review @nKostyan - I quite like the H Upmann No 2 but have never tried these. If you were picking between the two where would you put your money?

It is difficult to answer because there is no price for Cohiba Piramides. In addition, this cigar is not sold in whole boxes. If you do not pay attention to the price and availability-of course Cohiba tastes better

BTW, it was impossible to find Piramides Extra in Cuba (i've checked in 8 stores in Varadero and Havana, mostly LCDH).

I wish to have box of them.
