    Default Cojimar Nu Koffeecubano

    A few months back, I swapped cigars with Ox of CSmokers and LTC. I sent him some random sticks, and he sent me some surprises as well. Cojimar is one of the major producers of flavored cigars and I was looking forward to this change in direction cigar smoking wise. It has been well over a year since I've last had a flavored cigar. Many thanks to Ox for being so generous in sending these to me, it is truly appreciated.

    Appearance and Construction:(15 of 15 pts.)
    *Very dark and oily looking wrapper, exactly whata wrapper should look like
    *Respectable draw

    Flavor(16 of 25 pts.)
    *Surprisingly less flavored than other flavored cigars and the sugar-tip which Cojimar makes. I guess I was expecting more in this regard.
    *Slight bitterness that intertwined with a woodsy flavor. Points taken off for this.
    *Had a note of floral towards the last 2/3rds of the cigar
    *Nutty to spicy flavor from the first half to the middle of the cigar.

    Smoking characteristics(25 of 25 pts.)
    *This baby gave off giant clouds of smoke, a very enjoyable thing that adds to the ambience.

    Overall Impression(33 of 35)

    Overall score against other flavoreds-88

    SFG's flavored rankings:
    1.)CAO Moontrance
    2.)Havana Honeys
    3.)Cojimar Nu Koffeecubano
    4.)Cojimar Honey-Sugar tip
    5.)Colita cherry tins

    bardrock and Bkcloud114 both thought that the CAO flavors were horrible... and seems like some others agree. I think I'll pass.

    CAO flavours, Drew Estate and any other flavored cigars are IMO novelties... hell we always take some time to pass around and ridicule an unlit ACID at a herf...

    To me they belong in the gas station with the Peach White Owls

    Yeah, they are kind of like a train wreck, you just have to look. It's been a looooong time since I've smoked a flavored, just gave it a shot to see how I would rank it against others from back in the day.

    "back in the day", Scotty? When would that have been? Last week? A month ago? Maybe a year ago? You can't even shave yet, and you're talking about "back in the day"?

    Now it's all making sense, though... You're a HUGE fan of bundled and little known, Dollar General cigars. I guess if you've been smoking these since "back in the day", you would not have developed a sophisticated palate as of yet...

    Keep smoking, brother - it'll come....

    Just as an end note so to speak, the wrapper was truly amazing. Whether or not a cigar is a flavored or super-premium, the wrapper is to have a dark, oily exterior without prominent veins. I doubt the tobacco was top of the line from some farmer, but the Cojimar people and the torcedor truly did their job on this one.

    As an addendum, the cigar also came wrapped in a cool cedar sheath. This baby smelled wonderfully.

    Did you ever hear of the "edit" button you freakin' loser?

    It is really very sad that you continue to infect this place with your useless garbage posts. You only make yourself look like a pathetic


    when you continue to do so.
