Fantastic smoke in the first 3rd, then it got younger and younger - I smoked it to the end but not the exquisite smoke you’d suspect. I will wait 5 years more. And I would definitely never pay 150-200 Euro for a smoke like this, ever😎

5yrs old is the minimum to smoke Cohiba's so I would expect a thicker than avge stick to take longer to mature. Sure another 5yrs will improve it but I agree, never gonna pay £100 to try one myself. And I have actually paid a bit more than that to try a Davidoff 3000 & believe it or not I did think it was worth it. Smoking it with a good friend in Hotel Nacional History bar, no doubt added to the experience!

But that's part of it right? More recent times have seen a shift to rip off cigars. Messing with the tobacco. The older certainly seems to be pre 2000 are still steeped in history. Not saying there are no good cigars post 2000! We love natural boundaries us humans. And pretty much all my stash is much younger. And enjoying it. Would I pay 100£ for a cigar? No where near yet...
