Popular Post JohnS Posted July 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2017 Cohiba Gran Reserva Cosecha 2003 Siglo VI Review Vitola: Canonazo 52 ring gauge x 150 mm or 5.9 inches I had the opportunity to smoke this cigar a few months ago thanks to our dear friend @Trevor2118. We smoked one together and both agreed it was the best cigar we've sampled, and having sampled some exemplary cigars over the years, this is quite a statement. What is it like? Well, picture eating a honey, vanilla and cream sweet shortbread cake, only smoking it. I read a review on-line in preparing this reference review that the Gran Reserva series are amplified versions of their blends, only more subtle and refined. This is an apt and highly accurate description of this cigar. Like the video below, where El Pres and Smithy are both echoing each other's phrases in exemplifying how good this cigar is, I too was lost for words in adequately describing it, hence my lack of a detailed tasting review through the thirds. No matter, below are other reference threads for you to consider... In conclusion, if you happen to be fortunate enough to be able to pick up a box of these, or even singles, do so, you certainly will not regret it! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugu Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Wow, John - that's one kind of a review! Rather one-dimensional cigar with a lack of evolution, as it seems.... haha, just kidding, just kidding . Always a great experience when you are simply lost for words. Those are the very - and all too few - examples where you notice: it is possible, yes it is! And the people in charge in Cuba are actually fully aware of what they are doing. Thanks for posting! Goo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strikethebox7 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Amazing review John! You sir are a lucky man to have smoked such a stunning cigar. The flavor description sounds mouthwatering. What an experience! Lets hope the rumors are true and they bring back another gran reserva!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLFIRST Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Thank you very much for the wonderful review John. I've not had the pleasure to enjoy the 03 GR, however I've been lucky enough to smoke every Vitola from the 07 Cohiba Reserva humidor box. These were some of the finest cigars I've smoked in my life. They truly had the flavor of great tobacco that was cared for in a manner unlike most. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctorossi Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Thanks for the review. I love that nub photo. Was it still enjoyable that far down? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 If I recall, Trevor and I were both trying to nub our cigars as far as we could go. Yes, it was that special! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
