Here's a crack at a quick review for the Behike 52, I have to admit I'm a fan of Cohiba's as a whole and was quite excited to try this one.
Top quality, superb construction, had a very smooth pale wrapper hardly any veins and the pigtail looks great, almost a shame to cut it off! Not such a fan of the band, little to flashy but very smart nonetheless.
Rich savoury smoke, pepper and spice throughout. Smooth, strong yet refined. Not much in the way of the sweeter honey type notes I get from the robusto or siglo, certainly an after dinner cigar but one to savour.
Not experienced enough to discern whether the "medio tiempo" leaves made a difference but it was certainly rich and fairly intense. The burn was excellent and needed no correction, the draw firm but very good. Volumes of pale grey smoke and a lovely aroma.
This was a single from the UK, but brought a box back from Cuba so will wait a few years before having another look. Definitely a special occasion cigar, not tried 54 or 56, due to the size and mainly the enormous cost!
Cheers!
