These are one of my favourite cohiba,from the initial light to the very reluctant finish. I've recently spent a few weeks in Cuba with these cigars and found them very enjoyable,I brought ten back with me and only have four left.Having not had any problems with the draw and always a straight burn I will be purchasing more,no questions

I don't know if its just me,
I was really looking forward to lighting this bad boy and tonight was the night, I cut it and slowly took a few light draws, It seemed good and the over all taste was quite pleasant. I lit the cigar slowly and when I went for the first draw I had to take really deep draws to get any smoke into my mouth. Over all I took maybe 10 draws and the taste was horrendous, Very bitter and not enjoyable at all. I was disappointed as I had the Chinchalero Picadillos Cigar about a week earlier and was very impressed. Im not to sure what went wrong and don't want to shoot down the brand. If anyone maybe has some suggestion as to why it taste so bad I would be very open to know. Maybe just a bad one. At first I though maybe the home made humidor was over humidified but the rest of my cigars I have in there and smoke previously where perfect.

I've bought a few of these now, and if there is a more pleasant cigar for this price, I would be amazed. I would buy these over quite a few more expensive cuban cigars

Cohiba Maduro 5 Magicos Cigar - 1 Single
by Alistair
As a general fan of Cohibas and maduro wrappers it was obvious I was going to love this. It has typical Cohiba characteristics and a nice draw, but, to compare to chocolate, where normal Cohibas are milk, this is more a dark. Lovely stuff.

Bolivar Petit Coronas Cigar - 1 Single
by Alistair
Bolivars are delightful. That's a fact. I don't think I've ever had one that I didn't like however they are notorious for their strength (to the extent that on a tour of the Partagas factory in Havana we were directly warned).
Whilst these aren't as good as the Belicosos, which are perhaps my favourite of the range, they are certainly a decent analog, and being smaller I don't feel dizzy and nauseated afterward.
These babies are medium/full flavour - earthy, dark choc and spice - complemented perfectly by a glass of Islay whisky. I'm not completely sure why but generally I prefer to smoke these in the winter.

I agree with the previous reviewer, Andrew. These are not full bodied. However, the erroneous description aside these are an excellent cigar for me.
They last around 35 minutes, have a great even burn and a draw that doesn't require an industrial hoover attachment.
There is plenty of blue smoke and a warm, mellow taste that is consistent throughout and doesn't overpower. The ash is kept well for about half the smoke and is a pretty even colour.
I have smoked over 70 of these cigars and I haven't had a single runner or a plug and not one has required me to "manage" the smoke.
Brilliant and 5/5 from me!
