I was really lucky when I had a chance to try this new Maduro 5. What can I say, the Cohiba Magicos truly deserves its name 🙂
Appearance : [rating:4.5/5]
The wrapper is extremely neat, Cohiba Magicos is soft and smooth at the touch.
Construction : [rating:5/5]
Do I have to say it is perfectly constructed? When unlit, some woody and spicy notes can be felt. The draw is fine.
Flavor : [rating:5/5]
Had no problems lighting it up. In the first third, a lot of cedar notes are mixed with black pepper. You are literally overwhelmed by the flavors. The draw is excellent all the long; in the second third, the flavors get even stronger (yes they do!), poweful woody and spicy notes again. My head starts turning from pleasure 🙂 In the last third, aromas of hot earth and something exotic that I couldn’t even define. Great, great, great!
Value : [rating:4/5]
That’s a real masterpiece, and I’d rather say the price is right. It’s not a cigar to smoke everyday, only on special occasions. Don’t worry, you’ll remember this one 🙂
Overall Rating : [rating:overall/5]
A first-class cigar. I’ll repeat that it deserves its name and won’t disappoint.

i expected a lot from this cigar, and if i am honest i will admit i have been let down.
the flavour was smooth and had the distinct characteristics akin to the cohiba range, however for the price i felt it lacked depth and body. the flavour was weak and rather unimpressive, i have smoked cigars half the price of these that had more complexity.
I am glad i smoked this, but will not be wasting time nor money on another one!

Excellent review-I am a big Maduro fan,& bought the Cohiba Maduro 5Sampler pack & was so thrilled to be able to experience I think 5 years of ageing in Cuba. These were all absolutly delicious & I ordered a box of each. They will be in my humidor for another 5 years at least. I think that every Maduro lover & seasoned cigar smoker should try at least one of each-Excellent. Any replies to this are more than welcome. Thank you very much.

I really like this stogie. It is expensive but as said above, you WILL remember it. It looks beautiful, as soon as I picked it up I just wanted to smoke it. Great Cohiba flavours immediately after lighting, full on. Very spicey. Burns fast and yet surprisingly cool. Not for the beginners. Probably best smoked after a heavy dinner with single malt or well aged rum.
