"Absolutely the Best"
As you can see, most of the reviews of this cigar are 4 -6 years old. in the past few years, the Cubans have GREATLY improved their quality control.
I have had several boxes of these, along with several other sizes of Cohibas, and they appear to have their draw problems worked out.
At any rate, this cigar smokes like an absolute dream. Plenty of creamy smooth smoke, with that distinctive Cuban taste. Some sizes of Cohibas get a little harsh as you smoke them down, however, you can take these to the very nub, and they are still delightful. Probably one of the milder Cohibas, but with incredible depth of flavor. Highly recommended, and pretty worth the outrageous money you pay for them.

"Great smoke!"
This cigar had a couple years age on it and was absolutely dynamite. Everything was on with this one, draw, flavor, aroma, construction. Perfect

"Not my cigar"
Smoked the old ones with the black COHIBA word and 4 rows white dots as well as the new ones with the golden COHIBA and 5 rows white dots. Definitely not my style, unpleasant bite, even harsher than the Esplendidos and less flavor then the Hoyo. Maybe they still need some ageing.

"I love it!"
This was a great cigar! My boss gave me one to try and I can't thank him enough. I don't think I will be having anymore anytime soon, though. A bit pricey for me.

"A good smoke"
I like the process that the cohibas go through. This smoke has a great flavour, consistent draw and a pleasing aroma.

"Bah"
You'd think, for this price, Cohiba could at least roll the thing correctly. The draw was so tight I thought I was going to pass out from huffing so hard. What little smoke I managed to work out tasted pretty good. Such a shame.

":-( Cohiba Cohiba what have you done? :-("
Overpriced. Hard to draw. Disappointing. When I had this I had to relook at the stamp and label on the box to make sure they weren't counterfeit; they weren't. This was a $370 mistake.

"disappointed"
Considering the price, I found this to be a disappointment. The one I had had a very hard draw which ruined the whole experience.

"Very nice"
I enjoyed these very much. They burnt well although I ran in to a few plugged ones. Overall a very good cigar.

"Completely Plugged"
This cigar was undoubtedly genuine. I got it in a small habanas cardboard box from a half-cuban German businessman on holiday in Havana. This man knows his cigars. The cigar was so plugged I could not even get one good draw. Therefore, I cannot speculate on what might have been....

"Cohiba Special"
Beautifully crafted. Creamy, earthy, and sublime. Sneaks up on you like an Ali left hook. I have found some inconsistencies, however. Particularly with hard draws.

Great tasting and smelling... Just wish that Q/C was doing their job. Maybe needed to be in the humidor longer
