Does anyone know the difference between the siglo l and the siglo ll?

    No, they are both listed as 5.13x42 on the site I'm looking at.

    1 should be a 4x40 and 2 a 5.1x42

    No, deadman is correct, I was looking at the wrong entry. It is just the size. Doh!

    Anyway, are these worth buying? I mean, are they good?

    I have heard that the different sizes give of different notes and strength. I have had a siglo ll which was an awesome smoke.

    Siglo I is 40 x 4

    Siglo II is 42 x 5.25

    Both are petit corona's

    I prefer Siglo IV or VI

    Cohiba's aren't cheap anymore BTW.

    II are good but the VI is fantastic

    Can't touch the bigger sizes $$$. The siglo ll fit on my low limit cigar credit card.

    I have had the 1, 3 and the robusto... and the robusto was the only one that I could really get to draw well, that being said at the time I was enjoying them I knew less about humidity and aging... the bigger ring gauges seem to have more forgiving draw...

    Since Cohiba's prices have increased dramatically I would suggest buying a few singles to smoke first. I have smoked many of the I,II and III sizes. I prefer the larger ring gauges personally. Siglo IV's and VI's are smoking great, the price point is just crazy though.

    If your looking for something in size comparison and cheaper I would suggest Trinidad Reyes. Not a Cohiba but close IMO.

    RASS is another option for Robusto size and PLPC's can't be beat for price on a 50 cab. Monte 4 is another great affordable cigar. Partagas No. 4 as well.

    I agree with Trinidad as well, I error on the side of the Vigia size... Cohiba VI can be way too expensive 30-40+ a stick

    I don't think I could spend that much on a single stick. I'm way too cheap.
