The Cohiba Siglo II, part of the renowned Linea 1492 series, offers a medium-length format designed to deliver classic Cohiba elegance. While wrapped in an oily Colorado Maduro leaf, the presentation is somewhat marred by prominent veins less refined than one might expect at this price point.
There are certain cigars that arrive with expectation before the first draw. The Cohiba Siglo II is one of them. A member of Cohiba’s Línea 1492 series, it carries the name and heritage of Cuba’s most prestigious marca. The example in my hand today came with a slightly cracked foot—no cellophane, Cuban-style—but the soul of the cigar was intact. Its reddish-brown wrapper was smooth and lightly oiled, a quiet promise of what lay within.
A veiny but well-stretched wrapper. The cigar is powerful and dense, rich for its small size. It has notes of leather and musk. A tasty little smoke.
