Cohiba Siglo I Ratings

Rated 93 on 2020

Though small in size, this petit corona delivers ample amounts of concentrated smoke dense with layers of coffee, leather, salted caramel and a big, cedary finish.

 

Rated 87 on 2019

The draw of this petit corona is slightly firm, but the burn is even. Initial puffs are rich and substantial with nuts and toast, but flavors lose a good amount of intensity.

 

Rated 90 on 2017

There an attractive, oily gleam to the wrapper of this petit corona. Although it starts out light, the smoke becomes considerably stronger midway, showing a heady, earthy character with leather and graham cracker notes.

Cohiba Siglo I FAQ's

In Cuba, Cohiba Siglo I are generally priced lower than in international markets. Cuban cigars typically range from $8 to $90 USD per cigar, depending on the brand, vitola, and availability. Prestigious names such as Cohiba, Montecristo, and Partagás sit at the higher end. There is no real price advantage to purchasing full boxes, as the per-cigar cost remains the same unless you intend to leave the country with more than 50 cigars, in which case proper documentation is required to avoid confiscation by Cuban authorities.

For online buyers, packaging plays a key role. Boxed Cohiba Siglo I cigars require official documentation and customs review before leaving the country, increasing shipping complexity and cost. That is why Cohiba Siglo I cigars purchased online often cost more than in Cuba, largely due to the required paperwork for shipping. Cohiba Siglo I cigars can also be shipped without boxes while maintaining the same quality, and are backed by a 100% money-back guarantee on delivery, offering a more refined and cost-conscious approach.

Advice: Always request a receipt when purchasing cigars in Cuba “no exceptions”. Without proper documentation, cigars especially boxes will be confiscated by Cuban authorities during inspection on your return flight home.

The most seamless approach is to purchase Cohiba Siglo I directly through us online or at our retail shop in Havana, Cuba. Even if your Cohiba Siglo I cigars were not sourced through us, our team can assist in arranging everything for you while you are in Cuba, ensuring a smooth and discreet experience.

When departing Cuba, airport customs generally allow one box and one bundle without a receipt. While some suggest higher quantities may pass without documentation, a more measured approach is always preferred. Maintaining your receipt is strongly recommended.

For those seeking a more effortless experience, shipping Cohiba Siglo I is often the preferred option—particularly when traveling with larger quantities or without full documentation.

Short answer: No. (Consider purchasing online instead.)
Long answer: Yes… if you understand how the conversation is meant to unfold.

Traveling? Tips for returning to the United States with Cuban cigars.

When arriving in the U.S., the question is rarely just about cigars it’s about how you answer. If asked whether you have anything to declare, the reply is simple and measured “No”, especially when the total value stays within that familiar $800 threshold, a number that, like most things, can change over time. 95% of the time you will have no issues.

If the conversation becomes more direct, the details matter. If you are arriving from Cuba, the answer should still be “No”, because any cigars or liquor will be taken away if you say Yes. If you say No and they inspect your bags, worst case they’ll confiscate your cigars and liquor, and give you a verbal warning. Do not attempt to negotiate or explain, just say “I didn’t know” nothing more. The goal at this point is to leave with a verbal warning.

Saying “Yes” will ALWAYS result in losing your cigars and liquor.

If you are arriving from Spain or anywhere outside of Cuba, then you can answer “Yes” and simply say you have cigars or liquor from Spain or wherever your journey last took you. Do not say Cohiba Siglo I, just keep it simple and say cigars.

Avoid all of this and buy from us, or have us ship it to you if you already sourced your cigars in Cuba.

It’s not about avoiding the truth it’s about understanding how it’s told. Like a good cigar, timing and delivery are everything. The goal is to arrive home and enjoy your Cohiba Siglo I.

Because of its small size, consistency is key. Store it at 68–70% humidity and 18–20°C (64–68°F). Too dry and it loses its charm; too humid and the draw suffers. Treated well, the Siglo I stays lively, aromatic, and precise. When you light it, the wrapper should feel supple, the aroma fresh ready to deliver a clean, elegant smoke from start to finish. A Word to YouThe Cohiba Siglo I proves that refinement doesn’t need grandeur. It’s a cigar made for real life short moments, honest pleasure, and uncompromising quality. We ensure it arrives perfectly stored, carefully handled, and ready the moment you are, whether at home or in the office. From Havana to your hands, every detail is managed with care, so all that’s left is to light it, take a breath, and enjoy a quiet expression of Cohiba tradition simple, elegant, and deeply satisfying.

Picture this: you light the cigar and the ember glows like embers on a dusk beach. The Siglo I begins with soft notes of toasted almond and honey-dew sweetness, which give way to gentle spice woodsy, warm, like walking through an old Cuban tobacco campo after rain. Mid-smoke, there’s creamy coffee, a hint of cocoa, and a delicate cedar breeze. It never shouts; it evolves. The finish is long, smooth, and tinged with vanilla smoke that lingers like a fond memory. It’s balanced, elegant a whisper, not a shout just what you want from a morning or midday smoke.

From the first draw, you’re met with soft cedar and fresh hay, clean and elegant. Then come notes of light cream, toasted nuts, and a gentle sweetness, almost like warm honey. The spice is restrained just enough to remind you it’s Cuban. The finish is smooth, slightly grassy, and refined. It doesn’t overwhelm; it refreshes the palate, leaving you wanting just one more puff.

Here’s the truth it’s one of the best introductions to Cuban cigars you can choose. It’s refined and balanced enough that a newcomer won’t feel overwhelmed, yet it’s nuanced enough that an aficionado will appreciate every layer. Veterans might read deeper into its floral and cedar nuances; beginners can simply enjoy how effortless and smooth it draws. It’s like meeting an old friend easy to approach, but endlessly rewarding the more time you spend together. A Closing Word from JuanChoosing the Cohiba Siglo I is like choosing the first note of a great melody simple, soulful, and sure to linger. When you hold it between your fingers, light it, and inhale that gentle, complex aroma… you’re not just enjoying tobacco. You’re tasting generations of Cuban tradition, patience, and passion. Here, each puff is an invitation an invitation to slow down, to savor, and to be present. And when you order from us, every detail is handled with the same care a torcedor gives his finest rolls. From selection to shipment, it’s tradition delivered effortless, trusted, and genuine. So go ahead… let this be the cigar that invites you into the moment you didn’t even know you were longing for.

Very much so. The Siglo I is mild to medium in strength, approachable, and forgiving. For someone new to Cuban cigars, it offers clarity clean flavors, an easy burn, and no aggression. For the seasoned smoker, it’s a reminder of why Cohiba is revered: even its simplest expression carries elegance. It’s a cigar you reach for when you want purity, not power.

Ah, the Siglo I it’s like the first early light over the Malecón. What sets it apart isn’t just the pedigree (though Cohiba itself is an icon), but the way it introduces you to the Cohiba experience: smooth, refined, and impossibly balanced. Dominican, Nicaraguan, Honduran blends have their merits, but Cohiba is Cuban artistry perfect fermentation, meticulous selection, and that signature velvet creaminess on the palate. From the first slow draw, you taste layers cedar, a whisper of citrus, and that unmistakable Cuban floral sweetness. It’s not loud; it’s precise. That’s what makes it unforgettable. And in that refinement, you discover a universe in a petite format.

A cigar isn’t just tobacco; it’s ritual. The Siglo I with its quiet sophistication is perfect for meaningful pauses: a slow sunrise, a deliberate coffee break, an afternoon balcony conversation where time stretches just a little longer. It’s not for racing through; it’s for savoring. Pair it with a single-malt whisky, a crisp espresso, or maybe a añejo rum to mirror its subtle sweetness and spice. It’s also excellent for sharing when you want to slow down, not fill minutes. In its compact frame, it reminds you that great pleasures often come in small packages.

Ah, the Siglo I… this is where the journey begins. Within the Línea 1492, it’s the smallest expression, but don’t mistake that for simplicity. Measuring 4 inches with a 40 ring gauge, the Siglo I captures the soul of Cohiba in a compact form. It was created for moments when time is limited, yet quality is non-negotiable. This cigar teaches you something important: greatness isn’t about size it’s about balance.

The Siglo I is a 4¼″ × 40 (also called a Petit Corona). Now, many think small means simple but no. Its compact size distills the very essence of Cohiba. In about 30–45 minutes, you get a complete journey: introduction, development, and a clean, satisfying finish. Because it’s narrow, the flavors concentrate and sharpen like savoring an espresso instead of a latte. It’s precise. It doesn’t rush you, but it doesn’t overstay, either. Ideal for when you want quality over quantity a moment of depth in a brief window. And the balance? Perfect never rushed, never diluted.

This is a daytime cigar, perfect for late morning or early afternoon. I enjoy it with a good espresso, a café con leche, or even a light white rum. It’s ideal for a short break, a quiet balcony, or a moment between conversations. The Siglo I doesn’t demand your evening it fits neatly into your day, enhancing it without interruption.

Cohiba Siglo I Cigars

The Cohiba Siglo I is a compact yet expressive vitola from the Linea 1492 series perfect for those who seek the hallmark Cohiba character in a shorter format. Wrapped in a smooth, oily claro wrapper, it offers a refined appearance that hints at the richness to come.

The cold draw reveals earthy and woody notes, grounding the cigar with classic Cuban terroir. Upon lighting, the first third opens with intensity delivering aged wood and spice, accompanied by a subtle bitterness that adds dimension without disturbing the balance. A gentle pace is advised to fully appreciate its complexity.

In the second third, the strength rises slightly. Boldly Cuban in nature, the Siglo I reveals roasted undertones followed by deep, earthy flavors that resonate with richness.

As the final third unfolds, a touch of spice dances on the lips, while the earthiness persists. Cocoa notes begin to melt through the blend, bringing a soft roundness to the robust finish. The closing is warm, yet satisfying.

Balanced and flavorful, the Cohiba Siglo I remains a refined choice, though slightly more linear than previous seasons offering a quick yet authentic Cohiba experience.
