Tasting Notes

The gorgeous cigars are covered in a silky smooth Honduran wrapper and the tobacco fillers in it transverses three countries. The Honduran Olancho San Agustin is used for the binder as well. The layered binder-wrapper design does wonders to the overall smoking experience. The three-nation blend of the cigar is filled by Nicaraguan, Honduran and Dominican tobaccos. Though crafted and produced in Dominican Republic, the Cohiba Blue Cigar is predominantly Honduran. The best rollers and top quality tobaccos ensure Cohiba Blue's premium looks and unparalleled flavor. The selection of the tobacco is top-notch with its fine blend of fillers coming from the most renowned tobacco-growing areas in the world.

The Experience and the Flavor Profile

The whole cigar has a firm texture with its head considerably harder than the rest of it. The wrapper leaf has a sweet chocolate-like aroma while the foot of the cigar has a more earthy smell.

The Cohiba Blue begins with a pleasant spicy flavor that happens to be more subdued than dominant. The cigar also slowly reveals the perfect amount of natural tobacco sweetness. Hints of sweet leather, cream and caramel follow the initial sweetness. Cohiba Blue exhibits a few earthy flavors coupled with hints of cocoa, pepper and toast in almost every puff you take. Soon, the earthly tones of the cigar make way for a sweeter raisins flavor and a fair hint of vanilla. The sweeter profile starts to dominate the earthy flavors with a fine combination of vanilla, raisins and sweet syrup added into the mix. This cigar also has a cinnamon profile highly reminiscent of a cinnamon roll. For the most part, it's the earthy flavors and cocoa notes that remain dominant. Towards the end, savory pepper flavor and a woody profile run the show. But, the sweetness of the cigar still remains in the form of raisin flavor and burnt sugar.

The cigar burns well throughout the entire smoking experience and it was perfectly even as well. It needs minimum or zero touchups or relights. The positive thing to note is that the cigar does not have any unpleasant or bitter flavors at any stage of the smoking process.
