CUABA

Every Cuaba is made in the distinctive shape known as a double figurado, the style that at the end of the 19th Century was all the rage for Habanos. 

Double figurados are at the pinnacle of the cigar makers' art and for this alone they merit a place in every cigar enthusiast's collection. 

Cuaba, like Cohiba, is a Taino Indian word dating back to the time of Columbus. It was their name for a highly combustible bush, which the Indians used to light their 'Cohibas.'

All sizes contain a medium to full flavoured blend of filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone and are ‘tripa larga totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade.

DIVINOS

Strictly speaking this is a 'perfecto' size not a double figurado because the cigars head is rounded not pointed. It has a particular intensity of taste that makes it the perfect  accompaniment to a morning espresso.

Tasting Notes

The odd one out in the Cuaba range due to their different cap construction, being flat and not pointed the current batch have superb colorado maduro dark and oily wrappers and taste slightly fuller in terms of flavour than the rest of the range. The darker wrappers give a slightly sweeter taste with hints of spice and underlying earthy tones that are very pleasing. A good, sweet finish that leaves you wanting another one.

----

93/100

"A primarily nutty-tasting petit perfecto with earthy hints of carob chips and a toasty undertone that reverberates on the long finish. The draw is open and full...."

I picked a few of these up on a recent trip to Chester. I mainly went for the shape as never had small double figurado before. But having now smoked two I can honestly say there a lovely medium smoke lovely ginger and earthy I really enjoyed both and available at under £10. There a really good built and great tasting cigar

Not a fan at all , just my opinion . Very tight draw to start with, then it eased up and began to unwrap it self . Falling apart as I smoked it. Utterly bad luck I presume!! The taste was overly strong and unpleasant, left a very light headed sensation. Don’t think I’ll order this again . Definitely not my pallet for that matter. However this is my opinion. Others might find the the strong cigar experience their forte, it was a strong smoke indeed.

This cigar claims to have a maduro wrapper but it doesnt. My wrapper had dents/holes in it and was coming undone even before smoking it. Flavourwise it was typically Cuban but for the most part I found one of the flavours to be a bit too much. Despite this there were times when it was quite enjoyable. The draw was about right although it burnt unevenly most of the time and needed correction. Overall its worth a try but for me it doesnt offer anything that would tempt me to give up the H Upmann range. Cautiously recommended. 3.8 stars.

My first impression on looking at this was , well thats unusual ! Compared to say a Montecristo #5 ( my default smoke) I thought it would be a really quick smoke given its diminutive size but was really surprised. The initial burn wasnt linear following I think the the wrapper torpedo shape but then despite this , it settled down, didnt burn too quickly and held its draw evenly, in fact better than the MC which occasionally I find hard work. I suspect the construction is probably firmer and therefore more consistent but time will tell. Im not great on describing flavours but I do like a creamier short smoke and this reminded me a bit of some smaller grand cru Davidoffs Ive had in the past in that respect. This is a lovely short smoke, exceeded expectations and something I will go back to.
