Typical Bolivar flavour, and whilst it is not as strong as the larger ring gauge Corona Extra and Royal Corona, this is still a very fine smoke.
This deluxe cigar emits earth and leather tones. It is very well-balanced and best when aged. It has a medium to full body accompanied by pleasant aromas and subtle flavors. Rated 89 & ranked #1 by Cigar Aficionado.
It is a size that perfectly relates to the new-generation Habanos. If you are a smoker of this format, the Siglo III is one of the best, but if you smoke the traditional Cohiba sizes, you will find it too smooth.
The smallest of the Siglos can be defined as the authentic appetizer to the brand and to this special range, as well as being “primus inter pares”. The Siglo line has permited Cohiba brand name to pass from tradition to modernity.
These mild to medium bodied cigars have a very smooth and subtle flavor that has been its hallmark since its introduction in 1844. A great favorite among aficionados, the history of this brand began around 1840, when Herman Upmann, banker and almost fanatical cigar enthusiast, offered to open a branch of his family-owned bank in Havana Cuba.
In 2016 Cohiba celebrated its 50th Anniversary a new size (viltola) would be added to the La Linea 1492 range. The new cigar was christened the Medio Siglo.
