Cohiba Piramides LE 2001
Rating:
Country: Cuba
Size: 156 mm X 52
Shape: Torpedos
Size: 156 mm X 52
Shape: Torpedos
This cigar isn't particularly 'Cohiban', nor is it typically Cuban. The construction is outstanding, however the wrapper is not the usual thrice-fermented Cohiba style, but rather the '2nd generation' of the 2 year-old dark reddish-brown special edition wrappers. This cigar burns very evenly, a testament to its superior construction. It is medium in body, not strong - with much spice and pepper tones, and a touch of leather and chocolate notes. Further on it became slightly acidic on the lips, and showed other signs of youth - so it will improve with ageing. In six months to 2 years, this cigar may well become a highly unique smoke with unusual brand characteristics, and prized for its rarity considering the limited availability.

One of the most wanted Piramides. A medium to full-bodied cigar. Delicate aroma and coples flavours of wood and spice. Easy draw and even burn. A great example of 1st class piramides.

Hoyo de Monterrey Piramides LE 2003
Rating:
Country: Cuba
Size: 156 mm X 52
Shape: Torpedos
Size: 156 mm X 52
Shape: Torpedos
This size evidences all the soft and complex essence that characterizes the brand, this time in the powerful and attractive Piramide size. Habanos S.A. presents the long-awaited Edicion Limitada 2003. Received year after year with great acceptance, the Limited Edition distinguishes itself for the inclusion of sizes which are not part of the usual range of the brand, and is characterized by a special manufacture. The careful selection of a two-year aged wrapper from the upper level of the plant grants it a darker color and turns this product into something unique.

Upmann No. 2
Rating:
Country: Cuba
Size: 156 mm X 52
Shape: Torpedos
Size: 156 mm X 52
Shape: Torpedos
The similarities with the Montecristo cigars are present in almos all the sizes of the Upmann brand. This No. 2 is one of the tapered cigars par excellence, since the care that put into the making of the H. Upmann, at times, is not present in the Montecristo cigars. The only, difference would be barely in one degree less of strength. Magnificent draw and combustion. A great Habano, only for real enthusiasts.

Size: 156 mm X 52
Shape: Torpedo
An addition to the small the important size range of Habanos of this format. Like Montecristo and Upmann, we have a Habano which is robust, compact, strong and highly flavored. The special selection of its leaves and the quality of its wrapper distinguish it to such an extent that, in the future, it may be the perfect counterpoint to the Montecristo No. 2 when it comes down to choosing between two Habanos of the same format
