All 3 are great cigars. All three are expensive.

Cohibas need to be aged to appreciate their true potential. With that being said, if you are buying them to smoke now, go with an AGED box of Siglo XI's or the Piramides.

Go with the Behike BHK's or a NEW box of Siglo XI's if you want to smoke them in a few years (although they both taste pretty yummy now...imagine what a few years will do to them:togetherl ).

I've smoked all 3 and have had great experiences with all 3. If forced to decide on only one box to buy....I would personally go with the Piramides.

I hope you enjoy whatever decision you make.

A Tom I thought I was on to something when I posted my thread about my first Cohiba, didn't know it would cause a stir! I guess the red dots are importers but it was still Delicious. I'd say anything Cohiba is worth grabbing :thumbsup:

I have never experienced a Behike, so cannot comment, although they certainly sound wonderful.

I would have to choose the Sig VI, as they appear to be consistently one of the best smoking / tasting production cigars out there.

Of the 3 you mentioned I'd get the BHK 54. Best of the BHK range IMO. The Siglo VI does nothing for me and the Piramides EL were very disappointing nothing compared to the reserva Piramides. That said I'd buy the robustos, lanceros, Esplendidos or Sig IV over any of the above.

Ciggs, does one come with "training-wheels," because if so, that is what you should go with. Or, if they have a "B" release. You know what the "B" stands for! :rofl:

Carl, as usual, gives excellent CC advice.

IMO, the Behike does not have the Cohiba profile that I am used to...
Fully agreed.

...If price is key, get the Sig 6. If rarity is key, get the EL. And it is always good to have a Behike box laying around. :)
Great advice.

...I voted Behike because of the three choices listed, that is my favorite one...
I prefer the Siglo VI, though.

Ok, the Christmas behikes are off the list.

The only thing I need training wheels is a skateboard.

Come clean about your recent sales and that yearning for a penile implant. It's not your fault, ya poor bastid! We all have to live with what we are given. Besides, you're a nice guy. That amounts to something, right? :rofl:

Currently about 2/3 of the way through a CSVI. What a wonderful cigar. These are definitely the best current production regular Cohibas.

If not the piramide as eric said then i would have to save the esplendido or siglo five for me. But BHK may be pretty darn incredible in five years

siglo VIs are a staple in my humidor. Always consistent, great size. Just a joy to smoke. It is the single most held cigar in my humidor.

I'm just wondering if everyone's vote is truly on flavor and not cost. Sig VI is killing it which makes me happy because that's a cigar I can afford but the question was on taste.

Combination of price, availability and age.

You can get a box of 25 cohiba VIs with some age (07 and 08 are fantastic right now) for the same price as a 2010 behike 52. Sig VIs are more readily available as well.

Sig VI is also a longer cigar = more smoking pleasure.

Both have a place in my humidor however, I would also pick a sig VI, based on the factors above.

Having said that, my mules to cuba are now on the lookout for any sized behike......

Hope that this helps.
