Cigar Reviewed: Cohiba Riviera

I'm typically used to Cohiba cigars made in the DR. This cigar (Riviera), with tobaccos from Nicaragua, really was unexpectedly bold. Almost too much for my palate - but not in a bad way. This is a cigar that I could definitely work up towards as my palate matures. My absolute favorite aspect of the cigar was the box press. I love that such a simple update made such a profound impact on my enjoyment level. I hope Cohiba does more with the box press on some of their others lines. For me, this was a solid 4.5 cigar and something I could go back to for special occasions. Nice work, guys! Another great cigar from Cohiba.
