Jan 20th 2012 - Cohiba Black

Today brings us the Cohiba Black Robusto in a 5.5x50 vitola. Cohiba is known around the world as one of the top premium cigar companies. In 2006 they introduced the Cohiba Black as their full bodied maduro addition to their line. The Black comes to us from the Dominican Republic. It has a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper, a Dominican Piloto binder and long fillers from the Dominican Republic and Mexico. It will give you full flavors of chocolate, coffee, black pepper, wood and a classic maduro sweetness. Cohiba may be known for their elegance but this one is also a powerhouse. I chose this today as it was gifted to me by a great BOTL on the cigar.com forum. Thanks spindrift!
