COHIBA

Cohiba is the flagship brand of Habanos. 

It was created in 1966 for President Fidel Castro himself and was made at the then top secret, but now world famous, El LLaguito factory. At first, it was only seen outside Cuba as gifts for heads of state and visiting diplomats. 

Since 1982 Cohiba has been available in limited quantities to the open market. 

The name is an ancient Taino Indian word for the bunches of tobacco leaves that Columbus first saw being smoked by the original inhabitants of Cuba - the earliest known form of a Habano. 

The leaves for Cohiba are the "selection of selection" from the 5 finest Vegas de Primera in San Juan y Martinez and San Luis districts of the Vuelta Abajo zone. 

Uniquely amongst Habanos up to three of Cohiba's filler leaves , the seco, ligero and the rare medio tiempo, undergo an additional fermentation in barrels. This unique process produces a special aroma and flavour you will only find in Cohiba. 

Cohiba encompasses four different ‘Líneas’ or Lines: Línea Clásica, Línea 1492, Línea Maduro 5 and finally the Línea Behike range.

Through such constant innovation, Cohiba has held its position at the leading edge of the cigar world. It was also the first Havana brand to offer a Reserva cigar in 2002 and a Gran Reserva in 2009 made with tobaccos specially aged for a minimum of three and five years respectively.

All Cohiba sizes are ‘totalmente a mano, tripa larga’, – long filler, totally handmade.

ROBUSTO - La Linea Classica

The cigar that sparked the Robusto revolution from 1989 onwards and remains firmly in the vanguard of this important vitola. Rich, deep, spicy and not to be missed.

Tasting Notes

As a result of its strength and excellent blend this cigar has become one of the nine true Robustos. One of the most demanded Havanas in the market, a true gem.

----

91 / 100

"As light in body as it is in appearance, this cigar shows a creamy character with delicate floral, oaky notes and a fresh tobacco aftertaste. Some inconsistency was noted..."

Well my first Cohiba Robusto and I have to say it was sublime, straight medium for me but everything about it is pure class. Razor Sharpe burn, creamy and nutty with just a hint of chocolate and coffee, expensive for the size for sure but you can sort of understand it as it oozes quality. A real treat!

Like many before me this was my first venture into Cuban cigars and I was not put off by its full, spicy flavour. Its fair to say that as Robusto's go its a yardstick to measure by but in recent years I have noticed a slight increase in construction inconsistencies, in particular tight rolls and the odd plug and at this price point (and with the brands reputation) this needs addressing. When all is said and done a good Cohiba Robusto is very very good .... worth comparing with the Partagas Serie D No.4 and the new Montecristo Open Master.

Personally I think that Cohibas are a tad overated for what they are, I bought a pack of three and two of them were bad, and unfortunately it was my first of the pack and last of the pack so it will probably sway me not to buy another pack. Tasting notes are very spicy and woody, quite peppery as well, the two that were bad that I smoked didn't light very well and burned unevenly, maybe I need to smoke a few more to get the best out of them, but a tad disapointed with them.

Ive always found the cohiba robustos to be a little on the spicy side for me, However, I recently smoked one that was from an 05 box and it was amazing, I believe that there is nothing special about the 05 blend itself when compared to now, I do however feel that this cigar just had enough age to be mostly out of its sick period. It was just plain wonderful, Nice dark ash, Full of flavor including some cinnamon,leather and some hints of caramel which i attribute to the almost 4 years of age, Still spicy but toned down to a low roar :) Definatly recomended for smokers who love spice but still recomended for smokers who dont lke spice all that much and can be patient.

Spicy cigar with aslight sweetness to it. A very well structured robusto but a little expensive. Although it was spicy, it also had leathery, woody flavours going on. Highly recommended cigar if you can afford it!!!!! written by Joe
