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.
The Cohiba Siglo II size is a comfortable 5 ½” x 42—a classic corona. In the hand it feels substantial without bulk, a format where balance is tested and the blender’s skill is revealed.
On the cold draw I found notes of cedar, cocoa, dried fruits, and a whisper of spice. Cutting the cap revealed an easy, open draw—the kind that invites a relaxed pace and a reflective smoke.
The first flame brought a wave of pepper and spice—white pepper, cinnamon, and a floral mustiness that reached into the sinuses. Behind the heat was a sweetness of honeysuckle and orange peel, an accent that kept the profile elegant. As the burn settled, creaminess emerged with coffee and cocoa, balanced by honeyed sweetness and toasted nuts. Medium-plus in body, long in finish, textured and rich—this is where a thoughtful Cohiba Siglo II review begins.
By the second third, the cigar found its voice. The pepper calmed, leaving espresso, darker chocolate, cedar, and gentle spice to dominate. The sweetness grew richer—more like caramel than honey. Undertones of peanut and warm cinnamon showed on the retrohale. The ash held to about an inch before dropping; a touch-up here and there, but nothing to distract from the experience.
In the last act the Siglo II revealed its full character: caramel sweetness and bright citrus (orange peel) at center stage, layered with earth, leather, and a creamy retrohale. The spice softened to a gentle warmth. This is a true crescendo cigar—better with each third, finishing stronger than it began.
Cohiba Siglo II price varies widely by source and market; expect a premium. It’s a treat cigar, and the balance and refinement help justify the spend.
Packaging options include the classic Cohiba Siglo II Box 25 for aging, the convenient Cohiba Siglo II Box of 5 for travel or gifting, and singles when you can find genuine Cohiba Siglo II cigars for sale. When you see them in stock, buy with confidence.
This Cohiba Siglo II review writes itself: pepper and spice at the open, chocolate and espresso in the middle, caramel, citrus, and cream to close. A medium-bodied Cuban corona that delivers refinement without heaviness—elegance without weakness. Would I pay the top-end Cohiba Siglo II price every day? No. But as a gift or a well-earned indulgence, it’s memorable—a lingering reminder of why Cuban craftsmanship endures.
