Cohiba 55th Launch Event in Limasol, Cyprus

[Mr. Japan]

I had the fortune to be in Limassol, Cyprus at the launching of the Cohiba55 and as an organiser of one event a year, I like to congratulate again Phoenicia and all teh great staff for bringing up such astonishing and superb evening.

The day started visiting local Casa dell'Habana, that unfortunately did not have any Phoenicia 40 anniversario. Must go back 😉

I smoked the loose Cohiba 55, name of the vitola  "Vittoria" , and it is really a "win win" cigar even as fresh.

My personal sensation, for the cigar I smoked, even if we where in a quite high humidity area as it had rained during the day, was like a SigloVI gran reserva, full bodied and heavy creaminess, nuts as a roasted oily macadamia nut. Here there is really good tobacco and if you can get hands on a box and you keep it 10 years you will be in heaven when smoking it. I bet my dollar.

Several photos and a video of the starting. Enjoy.

Thanks for sharing Gino. Looks like a good time was had by all.  I am not able to play the videos though. Does anyone else have an issue with them?

I think you just embedded it wrong.  The link just goes to a graphic file (see below).  Are these videos you posted on a video sharing site like Youtube, or a direct upload from your pc/phone?
