I received a couple of these at a cigar expo which had a Cohiba-like band. The guy passing them out purported them to be the best cigar I would ever smoke....They were the only cigar I have ever had which was too strong to smoke. But a quality cigar.. I was intrigued so ordered a box here at CB. The ones I received had a different band. Perhaps a new band...or an old one. I have only smoke one so far and these are more medium flavor...but they are worth well more than they are going for here....that's all the info I have at this time....

I got a five-pack. Unusual taste - doesn't resemble any other cigar I've ever smoked.

After extensive research I have discovered the Bohio I had tried previously with the Cohiba-like band was a "Bohio Classico" from Nicaragua. The Bohio selling here is a different smoke entirely.

I just received my box of Bohios that I won last week. I smoked one last night. Not impressed!! Construction was a bit rough looking with a very loose feel. Before lighting, it smelled very grassy. It cut well and burned evenly but very quick. The taste was very much what I expected from the time I took it out of the cellophane. It tasted very young and grassy. I only made it though a couple of inches before I finally decided my palate had sustained enough punishment for one evening. I hope these things improve with age otherwise they'll end up in the trash.
