About the La Flor De Cano Siboney
La Flor de Cano has quietly built a following among smokers who value classic, mild to medium Cuban tobacco at a sensible price, and the Siboney sits among its most sought after expressions. Released as an Edición Regional for the Canadian market in 2014, this short petit corona measures 110 mm by a 42 ring gauge, a diminutive shape that concentrates flavor without demanding a long sitting. Production was limited to a restricted run of boxes of 25, which is part of why aficionados hunt these out today. The name nods to the Siboney, one of the indigenous peoples of pre colonial Cuba, lending the cigar a distinctly Cuban heritage.
Flavor profile by thirds
The opening leans gentle and inviting, with notes of honey, cedar, and a faint citrus brightness that keep things lively rather than heavy. Through the middle the cigar settles into a balanced groove, where touches of cocoa and leather meet a soft, savory sweetness that many reviewers single out for praise. The final third holds its composure, drawing the woody and chocolate tones together while staying squarely in medium territory, never turning sharp or overpowering before the band.
Pairings
- A cup of freshly brewed black coffee or a creamy cortado to echo the cocoa and honey notes.
- An aged Cuban or Caribbean rum, whose caramel sweetness complements the cigar’s gentle body.
- A lightly peated single malt or a glass of tawny port for a slower evening pairing.
Aging and storage
Like most Habanos, the Siboney rewards patience. Several tasters have noted that younger samples can show a little youthful edge, so resting these in a properly seasoned humidor at roughly 65 to 70 percent relative humidity allows the tobacco to marry and the sweetness to round out. Given its status as a limited regional edition, many owners hold a portion of their box for a year or two and smoke the rest along the way to follow how the profile matures.
Who it is for
This is a cigar for the smoker who appreciates nuance over power and who enjoys a shorter format that still delivers complexity. Newcomers stepping up from milder smokes will find it approachable, while seasoned palates will appreciate the balance and the collectible regional pedigree. If you want a thirty to forty five minute Cuban that pairs beautifully with morning coffee, the Siboney fits the bill.

Decent cigar but not my favorite from Cuban Cigar. The La Flor De Cano Siboney has good flavor – leather and wood – but didn’t wow me like other Cubans I’ve had. Construction was fine, burn was mostly even. It’s good, just not exceptional. Worth trying though.

Excellent cigar from Cuban Cigar. The La Flor De Cano Siboney has a refined flavor profile – lots of coffee and cream. Draw was perfect and it burned for about 63 minutes. Only minor complaint is it’s slightly strong for my taste, but overall a great smoke.
