The Cohiba Siglo III, a slender grand corona from the Línea 1492 series, offers a balanced and refined smoking experience with a profile rooted in elegance. Wrapped in a smooth Colorado leaf and crafted with a long, supple body, its appearance hints at the finesse within.
The cold draw reveals a bouquet of woody and vegetal notes, accented by subtle hints of licorice. Draw is initially firm, but opens with patience, allowing the cigar’s delicate nuances to emerge. The first third delivers a refined opening, with luxurious wood, traces of milk chocolate, and light vegetal undertones. Smoke is smooth and rounded.
In the second third, a pleasing balance between strength and aroma is achieved. The profile introduces light pastry notes while vegetal and peaty elements maintain center stage. The progression feels measured, inviting slow enjoyment.
As the final third unfolds, strength builds with notes of tanned leather and rich humus, while the flavor remains steady. Though aromatic evolution tapers off, the cigar finishes with a hearty, grounded presence—never harsh, always composed.
Despite a slightly restrained second half, the Cohiba Siglo III remains a distinguished vitola, combining craftsmanship and complexity in a format that rewards the patient smoker.
