What Cigar Aficionado says about it

" There are few cigars on the market, Cuban or otherwise, that are as sought-after and recognisable as the Cohiba Siglo VI. Since its release in 2002, the Siglo VI has continued to shimmer with undeniable star power. At the time, it was the fattest Cohiba in the range. It was also the first cigar to be sold in a shiny, lipstick-like tube with a pop-top cap. This format, known in Cuban cigar factories as cañonazo - or cannon shot - was developed exclusively for the Siglo VI. Twenty years later, retailers are still struggling to keep this cigar in stock, despite its high price. This Cohiba line, sometimes referred to as the "Siglo series", is officially called Línea 1492 and is slightly milder than Cohiba's core line, the Línea Clásica. According to Habanos, two aspects make the Cohiba special. Firstly, part of the filler leaf undergoes an additional fermentation period in barrels. Secondly, the tobacco for Cohiba is allegedly harvested from the five best farms in Vuelta Abajo, Cuba's famous growing region in the western province of Pinar del Río. If Cohiba is the flagship of Cuba, then the Siglo VI could very well be Cohiba's flagship format, and for good reason. The nutty cigar is bursting with espresso, brown sugar and dried berries before ending with a rich chocolate finish. " Cigar Aficionado, 01.01.2022
