Not sure what the age is on this cigar as I received it a while back in a huge bomb. I thought I would just leave it sitting for a long while to let it get some age, however saw it and decided it was just time to burn it, so I did. It had a golden brown wrapper with slight oil and small patchwork veins throughout. The weight in the hand was just right, firm when squeezed, and with the small cap punched I found the draw to have a perfect resistance with a slightly sweet, straightforward tobacco taste coming through.
As I torched the foot, I could already smell the delicious smoke wafting up to my nose, and after a few quick puffs, I took a long draw. There was a medium pepper spice on the back of the tongue and throat with a medium to almost full strength on the palate. The flavors were of pure Cohiba right from the start with a delicious richness that was smooth and creamy, tastes of sweet coffee and hay with a toasty nuttiness that left an incredibly good, lasting finish.
The burn is sharp through the first third with a medium gray ash forming in perfect layers, holding strong until tapped off in the ashtray. Strength continued to be a good medium with the spice hitting just right, smoke flowing well through the perfect draw. I really like the lancero vitola, and this one was definitely one awesome smoke with rich flavors, the smooth smoke sliding over the palate leaving a lasting finish that left me wanting to take another draw almost as soon as I exhaled.
Halfway and into the final third, the burn continued to be sharp, however I will say that the draw seemed to want to tighten up on me slightly, however with a long slow draw more than enough came through. Right towards the end, I would say the strength picked up to more of a full strength with the spice kicking up a notch as well. This was definitely one thoroughly enjoyable Cohiba, all the way to the end.
