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.

SIGLO I  - La Linea 1492

The Cohiba Línea 1492 range was first announced at a reception at the Captain General's Palace in Havana on 4th November 1992, which took place during a Festival held to celebrate the 500th Anniversary of the discovery of the New World by Christopher Columbus.  

The Linea 1492, originally consisting of five sizes - Siglo I, II, III, IV and V before the VI was introduced in 2002, were expressly introduced to mark Columbus's 500th Anniversary and each Siglo (which means 'Century' in Spanish) commemorates one the five subsequent centuries.  

The Linea 1492 is classified as medium flavoured and remains the lightest flavoured line of Cohibas.

Please note: Matches not included. 

Tasting Notes

91 / 100

"The reddish, colorado wrapper and neat triple cap make this a charming cigar to behold. The draw is open and even, as is the burn, showing a big steeped saffron note that ushers in additional layers of brioche, leather and white pepper before the floral, cedary finish..."

Smoked via a punch cut. Had to use the widening tool on a couple of occasions as it was an incredibly tight draw. Burnt reasonably well, had a nice aroma, lasted about 30 minutes. Not as strong as I would have liked. Will stick to the larger sized cohibas in the future

5 stars no doubt about it, this is the strongest cigar and most expensive one ive bought so far, i loved it, from the first puff it was powerful and i just couldnt stop retrohaling it despite it burning my nostrils, i was not yet fully prepared for a bigger cohiba but i do love them strong, will be buying these again for special occasions! Lasted about half an hour, normally time check but got lost in mental bliss smoking this one, felt very satisfied after smoking

Easily the smoothest and most relaxed cigar I’ve ever enjoyed. This is a cigar to enjoy after dinner alone or as the sun goes down. I smoked it late at night under the stars and couldn’t believe just how relaxing and soft it was. Makes you wonder just what it must be like to hold those other more expensive cigars between your fingers! Will definitely keep ordering. Also, have to say the delivery was very fast and the packaging was excellent. Can not recommend enough.

Not a bad little cigar at all. It lasts longer than you might expect for a cigar of this size. Not the smoothest smoke in the world, but burned well and was enjoyable. I would buy again.

Undoubtedly my now personal short smoke of choice. Very well built and comes in a beautiful little tube. Today was my second time trying these. It's a lazy Sunday morning and a little taste of Cohiba magic was perfect for a lazy hour's worth of coffee drinking and internet surfing. The first 3rd starts out wonderfully with all the wonderfull mysterious aromas and smells that are so unique to Cohiba tobacco. This is a cigar with interesting complexities that are never to overbearing. I found the draw perfect and although I did have to relight after the second 3rd I was not too concerned (I only get frustrated at the second relighting). A bit more pricey than the other players in this size range but well worth it.
