Has anyone had THESE

Seem to be a decent price. About $5ea for the No.II.

I'm not sure of the Cohiba connection other than the blatant ripoff of the Cohiba band. To the best of my knowledge, the manufacturer makes no mention of Cohiba in any of their marketing or nomenclature.

Yeah, those aren't Cohiba related at all.

Being that they're made by Altadis, are they a rip-off or a "line extension"?

McSmokey · 10-07-2010, 06:37 AM

Those are made by Altadis and simply known as Siglos. I have had the IV Tubo and the VI Tubo they were both fair for what they are I preferred the IV between those two.

I had a Maduro "limited reserve" and thoroughly regretted it about a month and a half ago

I have seen them in a few b/ms and just couldnt get passed the obvious ripoff they were doing of cohiba.

that said I have seen many people buy them and say they enjoyed them

As opposed to the obvious rip-offs of Partagas, RyJ, HdM, Por Lorranga, Bolivar, Punch and so on.

In all fairness they're not ripping Cohiba off, they own Cohiba. Altadis owns the name Cohiba in the United States and Imperial Tobacco Group PLC, owns both Altadis and 50% of Habanos SA.

I had one, given my love for the Siglo Line I had to try one. I think it left a skid mark on my soul, it tasted that bad.

hscmit · 10-07-2010, 08:10 AM

Yep, I think it was the entire packaging thing. At least with some of those it is the name and a different label, these just had so many of the details very close to the original

Emjaysmash · 10-07-2010, 08:23 AM

They aren't that bad.

I believe Bobby is saying that's the same reason why he hasn't tried them.
