Cohiba Medio Siglo UTL NOV 18 (CoRW)

[havanaclub]

 

Cohiba is one of my favourite marca, unfortunately, as I will likely never buy another box again at these insane prices. Luckily I bought many boxes from Rob and while in Cuba so they should last a while as I don’t always reach for them.

 

I have always enjoyed the Medio but not as much as a CoRo. I recall when Rob was selling these for less than island prices (sub 300) people still argued that for the size, it wasn’t worth the price. So at triple that price, it does boggle my mind that they move. Nonetheless, here is my review. I have found that they always have an open draw which makes them burn fast and hot. And I am a slow smoker.

 

This sample I used a small punch that seemed to limit the air flow and somewhat keep the draw reasonable. This one was packed well and have always found them to be well constructed.

1st: honeycomb, not much hay or grass. A very good start. Medium to full.

2nd: toasted tobacco, honey with some almonds and some light hay filtered in.

I just broke it into halves as it’s such a small cigar. This was a very good example, but not worth today’s prices.
