It had a dark, oily wrapper with a robust feel. The cold draw is tight, with earthy and spicy notes. The first third offers bold coffee and leather, with a medium-to-full body. The second third brings out cocoa and a slight sweetness, but the draw remains resistant, impacting enjoyment. The burn is uneven, requiring touch-ups. A decent smoke but not up to Cohiba’s premium standards.

The wrapper is gorgeous, but the draw is inconsistent, sometimes too tight. Flavors start with pepper and cedar, evolving into a creamy, nutty profile with hints of dark chocolate. The final third gets earthy and slightly bitter. Burn is mostly even, but the tight draw detracts from the experience.

had a solid construction with a milk chocolate wrapper. The cold draw is smooth, with hints of spice and wood. The first third is bold, with espresso and leather dominating. The second third softens with creamy cocoa and a touch of fruit. The finish is strong, with earthy notes and a slight burn inconsistency. A complex smoke but overshadowed by its high cost and occasional construction flaws.

had a thin, delicate wrapper with minor veins. The cold draw is tight, with grassy and floral notes. The first third offers light cedar and spice, staying mild. The second third introduces creamy vanilla and a hint of nuttiness, but the thin ring gauge leads to a hot burn toward the end. Draw is decent but requires care. A quick, elegant smoke for beginners.

This slender cigar had a smooth, light wrapper and a firm feel. The pre-light aroma is subtle, with hints of hay and tobacco. The smoke starts with grassy notes and a touch of pepper, transitioning to a creamy, slightly sweet midsection. The final third is underwhelming, with a bitter aftertaste and uneven burn. Construction is solid, but the small size limits flavor depth. Overpriced at £23.80.

The construction is impeccable, with a silky wrapper. Flavors are light, with cedar, grass, and a hint of citrus. The draw is perfect, but the burn requires attention due to the thin gauge. It’s a smooth, 30-minute smoke, ideal for a quick session, but lacks the richness of larger Cohibas. Good for casual smoking but not memorable.
