Schnitzel? looks lovely! @BoliDan That is the local glass we use here for wine mixed with water, 0,4l capacity. In my case it's half Rose´ wine and half mineral water, my usual drink here as we are a wine region. Other locals drink white wine & water. Looks like a Schnitzel, you're right, but it's a Cordon Bleu, pork Schnitzel filled with ham & cheese - yummy !! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JohnS Posted May 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2020 Cohiba Medio Siglo TPO Jun 2019 The Cohiba Medio Siglo was released in 2016. It made Cigar Journal's Top 25 cigars that year. This is what they wrote about its release back then: In celebration of its 50th anniversary, Cuba’s best-known cigar brand, Cohiba, released three cigars: the Cohiba 50 Aniversario, the Cohiba Majestuosos 1966, and the Cohiba Medio Siglo. The latter is the first new vitola to join the Siglo series since 2002. Siglo means “century” in Spanish, and each format in the series, ranging from Siglo I to Siglo VI, represents a century in Cuba’s history. Medio Siglo means “half century,” and the Petit Robusto’s dimensions pay tribute to the Siglo series’ two most popular vitolas: it has the Siglo I’s length and the Siglo VI’s ring gauge. This cigar is Habanos S.A.’s first Petit Robusto, and we think it is a very successful new release indeed! It's easy to compare this cigar to the Cohiba Robusto, after all, they almost share the same ring gauge, the Medio Siglo is about an inch shorter and yes, it is another Petit Robusto addition to the Habanos regular production catalogue. However, I'd like to theorise that the Cohiba Medio Siglo has more in common with the Cohiba Siglo VI than the Cohiba Robusto. There are a number of reasons for this. Firstly, as Cigar Journal pointed out in their description referenced above, the Medio Siglo is a 52 ring gauge cigar like the Cohiba Siglo VI. The Cohiba Robustos is a 50 ring gauge cigar. Secondly, when the Cohiba Siglo VI was added to the Linea 1492 range in 2002 it was the biggest cigar in the Habanos regular production catalogue, at the time. Similarly, when the Medio Siglo was added to the Linea 1492 series in 2016 it was the largest ring gauge cigar in the Petit Robusto format for cigars of 4 inches length (102 mm). Thirdly, like the Cohiba Siglo VI, the Medio Siglo shares similar qualities in its rich flavour profile. In my opinion, both the Siglo VI and Medio Siglo are richer in flavours, more fuller-bodied than the other Siglo cigars. The Cohiba Medio Siglo has the hallmarks of a Linea 1492 cigar in its quality hay and sweet honey notes. What I feel it borrows from the Cohiba Siglo VI is the buttery texture and coffee flavours, albeit in the Medio Siglo the coffee is much darker. This Medio Siglo also had really nice biscuit qualities to complement the coffee flavours. Make no mistake, I'm more than willing to admit that this is a quality addition to the Cohiba marca, especially since I've spent the last fortnight exclusively smoking Cohiba for a video review series. The plumes of smoke this cigar gave meant that I had to smoke it slowly; it took 75 minutes to smoke in fact! The Cohiba Medio Siglo does have a buttery texture and coffee notes which relate it to the Cohiba Robusto. However, I'd classify it amongst the richer flavour profiled cigars in the Linea 1492 series, together with the Cohiba Siglo VI. 29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps time to fire it up! No time like the present. Cheers to the dirty ashes! Thanks man. Good to finally have time to smoke cigars again. One of the positives from this pandemic is actually having time back to do things other than being on planes. As for dirty ashes.... Hope you are doing well my man. I see you are firing up some great smokes. On 5/26/2020 at 9:30 PM, westg said: Welcome Back Thanks man. Good to be back. Nice to see a lot or familiar faces firing up some great sticks!

Popular Post FatherOfPugs Posted May 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2020 Wife and I celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary tomorrow, so that means a great cigar this evening, as we'll be out for dinner tomorrow, most likely no cigar tomorrow night. I bought 2 boxes of these back in 2007 specifically for smoking on/around our anniversary each year. Little did I know, I should have purchased like 30 boxes, lol! This evening, a SCdlH Mercaderes LCDH EMA JUN 07 paired with some Wilderness Trail single barrel. 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
