Cohiba Medio Siglo feedback


Recommended Posts

For those of you who have had the pleasure of smoking through some of these, what's the feedback like? If this is in the wrong section I'm sincerely sorry. 

About how long is the smoke, hows flavor compared to the robusto????

Make no mistake, I'll have both this year but curious in the meantime.

Very strong, very tasty. Rich. They also have quite a nicotine punch for such a small cigar. Closer in blend to the Linea Classica than the 1492. I like them more than the Robusto.

MS is a personal fav of mine. Has been for some time. When they’re found they’re slowly becoming one of the few Cohibas i can still afford. I get 60-80 mins depending on my surroundings. I’m a notoriously slow smoker by others standards. 
 

Flavors? Much bolder, in your face, and robust than the Robusto. Pardon the pun. The great ones have some of that Cohiba citrus to them but I get much darker flavors than the rest of the  Linea 1492. If you’re not a seasoned smoker expect a big kick about 10 mins in. If you are then it’s just a great punchy Petit Robusto. I think @SigmundChurchill enjoys them too but he’d rather duct tape 2 of them together. His gripe, as is the gripe of some others, is that the cigar ends right when it’s firing on all cylinders. 
 

Robustos are nothing to sneeze at. Great cigars!

This sums it up. More kick than other Cohibas usually, but they pack a lot in flavour. I love them too! 👍

FOH wins by a landslide in all areas I don’t care what anyone says. Never heard a bad thing I’m just throwing it out there the operation is flawless and I feel insanely lucky to be a part of this community. 
now if I could just figure bout how to join a zoom. The time zone thing, it’s like the bane of my existence.

My only knock on the MS is the same as every petit robusto.  It's very uncomfortable for my meat hook hands; otherwise they're great cigars.  I just don't prefer a cigar that basically starts burning my thumb shortly after lighting.

GF bought me a couple sticks, absolutely love them.  Would I buy over a CoRo?  Not seasoned enough to be able to discern the difference in taste/strenght between a MS to CoRo as I've only had 3MS.  Feeling I get more bang for the buck given with the CoRo.

Is that the little Cohiba you sent me? I don’t often get Co’s...
