Cohiba Maduro 5 Genios Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Friday 16 October, 2020 by James

Having been a long time aficionado of some 23 years, I believe in giving a cigar credit where credit is due and that is most certainly the case with the Cohiba Maduro 5 Genios. It is a great sized, well built, flavourful, beautiful looking cigar.

From the very beginning it did not disappoint. It gave everything I expected of this Cohiba Maduro wrapper cigar: A perfect even burn from the start, packed with a broad spectrum of flavours; From the well known Cohiba creamy vanilla taste, through the spices, leather, cocoa, the well known eucalyptus of an aged cigar right through to ammonia.

This cigar gives you everything it has to the point youll allow it to burn your knuckles because you dont want it to end.

A reasonably strong cigar, displaying a mix of similarities to both the Behike and Cohiba Robusto Supremos, this is something I would highly recommend for the more experienced smoker that wants to try a higher end or Maduro cigar. Dont let the price be a deterrent, it is worth it. As most stores are selling out of the 10s and 25 boxes (which is understandable), now is a great time to try a single cigar.

Im truly impressed by it. Could it have been any better? Well, Id say its an excellent cigar the moment its smoked, the very best it could be at that time. The only thing that I believe could make it into a fantastic cigar is putting it down in a well maintained humidor to age some more and let the flavours marry together further but with something so excellent right now, that may be hard to do.
