In fairness I should point out I am not a fan of aromatics but occasionally try one on the recommendation of an experienced pipe smoking friend.
It smells good in the packet but is moist to the point of wetness. Perhaps I should have let it dry out but was eager to try it so filled the bowl and tried to light it. I went through half a box of matches before I got to the end of the gloopy stuff. The topping was overwhelming and far from pleasant - tongue bite severe. All in all a gruesome experience... unless you happen to be a masochist.
Of course I recognise that we are all different and this might be right up your alley. I can only say it wasn't up mine.

Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos Cigar - 1 Single
by Stephen
Inch for inch, this was the priciest smoke in my humidor and I had been very much looking forward to it.
What a disappointment!
First, the draw was so tight I was struggling to get much through it. I rolled it around and got it loosened up a bit, but it never quite produced the easy draw and large volumes of smoke I was anticipating. Next, it wouldn’t hold its ash, and it wouldn’t stay lit. I had to relight it three times and after it went out a fourth time I lost the will to try again, with still about an inch to go.
Looking at the other reviews, perhaps I was unlucky with the construction of this one. However, overall, this was a very disappointing smoke. I did occasionally encounter the Cohiba flavours I had been looking forward to, but it fell well short of my expectations and I will have to think hard about whether to invest this much again in another one any time soon.

Cohiba Behike BHK 54 Cigar - 1 Single

Unfortunately its not possible to review these cigars while completely ignoring the enormous price mark-up. They can be fantastic cigars, lovely subtle, complex flavours and beautifully rolled.. but the quality and enjoyment is just not in proportion to the huge price. A lot of it is just clever marketing to wealthy cigar smokers with more money than sense. Equally great and even better quality Havana cigars can be found for a small fraction of the price of these. These cigars, at most, should be half the price.

I like a bargain so I thought Id try one of these. Construction seemed fine. Very firm - suggesting it would be long lasting - wrong. Ive had Chicos that last longer than these. Initially the taste seemed OK. A bit like Inka Secret Blend. However as the cigar progressed the taste became darker and a little bitter. Not nice. Thats how it stayed. My conclusion here is that at around £4 they are actually way too expensive. Chinchaleros cost less and seem to last longer. If you want a really nice cigar for the same price look no further than Arturo Fuente Cubanitos.

Very good cigar for the price,bit of earthish and chocolate taste with a hint of peper on tip of the tongue, good and even burn,full stregth.They are my new favourite cigars work perfect with Johnny Walker Black Label.
This are for people that have experience with cigars to apreciate them to their real value a taste.
This is my opinion.

Strong little stick, enjoyed the smoke, has a strong full flavour. Left me a little light headed afterwards. Maybe my palette wasnt quite ready for the strength. If your into the stronger end, definitely give it a go, packs a punch.
