Smoking a Cohiba Siglo II
The Siglo II places a heavy emphasis on sweet and mild flavors. It’s highly enjoyable and easy to smoke, and it pairs well with a light whisky or coffee. The trademark Cohiba quality can be felt throughout, although it is definitely a cigar for those who appreciate lighter flavor profiles.
Construction and Feel
Like all Cohibas, the Siglo II is packed and wrapped carefully, with no soft spots or irregularities to interfere with an even burn. The shorter length gives it a slightly shorter burn time than most, but it still provides around an hour of smoke time.
The wrapper is firm and smooth, giving it a luxurious feel between your fingers. It’s easy to forget that this is one of Cohiba’s less-expensive cigars, especially when comparing it to cigars from outside Cuba.
Flavors and Aromas
The light flavors of the Siglo II revolve around chocolate, caramel, and vanilla notes, but these flavors don’t come out strongly until the second third. The first third is very mild and light, with more woody overtones than sweet ones. Once the cigar has reached the halfway mark, espresso and oatmeal notes emerge, providing a classic blend of mild flavors.
The last third is largely the same as the second, with sweet and savory notes continuing to dominate any spicy undertones. The intensity of the cigar remains the same throughout and you don’t get the evolution of flavor apparent in more expensive cigars.
One of the best things about the Siglo II is the lack of harshness in the last third. It remains beautifully balanced and smokeable all the way to the end, without any bitterness. It’s a cigar most people smoke right to the end.
Cigar Value
Although it’s slightly more expensive than the Siglo I, the Siglo II remains one of the best value Cuban cigars. Cohiba is a high-end brand and even their cheapest options can seem above-average in price. However, the quality of the smoke is paramount and a Siglo II trumps most non Cuban cigars.

This was my first time trying the Siglo II. I have to say what a great smoke! Very nice mild earthy notes in the beginning then 2/3 of the way through changing to a little spicy cedar notes leaving a very pleasant after taste. Definitely a great midday smoke with about a 45-50 minute burn time.Response from store Thanks for your comments. We really appreciate your opinion.
