Had this one in the Christmas gift that got me started on cigars.(the one in the tube) I was told it was a bit dry out of the tube and I should take it out for about a week before I smoked it. I was most exicted about smoking this one, but sadly the least impressed..I wouldnt turn another down,but they are not on my list to get more of.
I have yet to find a CAO I liked - that being said I have a Black (as well as some Brazillias, some Itallias, etc.) in my cabinet. I have not yet tried the Black, but doubt it will be any different.
I actually had a Cohiba Black tonight in the Suprema size. This thing had been sittin in my humi for well over 8 months, and I remember eyeing it for a while before purchasing it. All in all, it was a good smoke. Seemed to be hard a rock yet had a very tolerable draw that was a bit tight (par for a cohiba) but produced ample smoke. Burn was almost perfect, and it was rather tasty. Nothing special and I wouldn't put it in it's price point, but not a bad cigar.
I've had one of the Cohiba Blacks and I thought it was a pretty good smoke. It was a GREAT smoke because of the event I was at when I smoked it... It was at my wedding reception-after party. Sitting around with the wife and a bunch of friends having some drinks and smoking a cigar. The wife picked it up for me as a little gift for after the wedding. It isn't something I would smoke on a regular basis due to the price.
