Cohiba Siglo I

The small Petit Corona from Cohiba's Linea 1492, known as the Siglo 1, is considered, along with a few others, a classic of Cuban cigar craftsmanship. Starting with a brief burst of spice, the cigar quickly and smoothly develops into the typical Cuban earthiness, complemented here by the equally iconic nutty aromas. For a good half hour, the Cohiba Siglo 1 will be your perfect little companion.

Earthy, Nutty

The Cohiba Siglo I, from one of Cuba's finest manufacturers, if not the very best, clearly demonstrates the capabilities of small cigars. While its pre-light aroma offers few surprises—we know that scent all too well—it truly shines once lit. After a brief burst of spice, the typical earthy-nutty notes of a larger cigar develop. The burn is even, any minor stray lights correct themselves, and the draw offers a relaxed resistance. Pairs well with water, a beer or a Rum
