Popular Post zeedubbya Posted May 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2017 Siglo 2 Notes--2011 Unknown box code. Gift from a good friend. Cold draw is grassy hay with a little bit of something like anise maybe citrus. Think I am looking for citrus in this cigar. Starts out a bit harsh, surprising for this cigar, maybe a bad lighting technique. Pretty windy and torched the crap out of it. Burn a little weird but not a problem. Forgot to write out the thirds, because I was hunting golf balls with my 5 year old. This was an excellent cigar. This particular example was very full flavored. This wouldn't be a cigar I would give to a newbie and usually I like giving Siglo 2s away. They're generally fairly accessible and tasty I think. Occasionally I do find Siglo 2s like this--like the blend was tweaked with just a little too much strength. I think some people say too much ligero but I am not sure if that's really what it is--just admittedly not enough experience to say for sure. Solid aged tobacco taste. It had the honey sweetness, the creamy coffee and the citrus which is what I really love about Siglo 2s. Flavors were intense. Very intense. This one had enough age it didn't get hot at the end. Stayed nice and cool the whole way. Took little over an hour to smoke. I am certain slowing way down makes a huge huge difference in the tastes you can get from an in your face flavor bomb like this. Truly a great example of Cuban tobacco near its finest. I would rate this cigar a 93/94 and would give it higher marks if it was just dialed down a hair....but that's more just personal preference, but isn't it always! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooseAMuffin Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Great review! Citrus flavor sounds like a winner to me. What better way to spend a Sunday than hunting for golf balls with your kid! Hopefully they drove the cart while you relaxed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
