Cohiba is said to be the original Taino Indian word for tobacco. These cigars have established themselves as the premier Havana brand as reflected in their price. Characterised by an additional third year of fermentation the tobacco imparts a smooth and distinctive taste which can be found in either the original and robust Linea Clasica or milder, more recent Linea 1492 which was launched in November 1992.
This new range of cigars was named Siglo (meaning century) to represent the five centuries since Columbus first discovered tobacco in the New World. They offer a slightly lighter flavour than the Linea Clasica. Ideal as a gift or present are the new Cohiba Siglo VI's in strikingly modern "Cohiba" tubes. An outstanding cigar in a brilliantly designed package. Arguably the best cigar to emerge from Cuba in the past decade ! If you like these larger cigars try the superb new 54 ring gauge Limited Edition "Sublimes" !
Cohiba Maduro 5 Gift Presentation / Box of 3 NEW !
A totally new and unique size for Cohiba, the Genios provides a rich, complex, smoke akin to the recent 2006 Limited Edition Piramides. The five year old dark maduro wrapper imparts a toasted, vaguely sweet aftertaste as it builds in intensity. Probably requires more time to develop its unusual and very distinct character but certainly worth smoking while fresh from Cuba. Buy now as stocks are unlikely to satisfy demand !
Following the trend for short, fat mini robusto style smokes the new Cohiba Magicos is a welcome addition to the Cohiba range of cigars. Similar in size to the recently launched Montecristo Petit Edmundo and Hoyo Petit Robusto. The cigar burns slowly and draws well forming an attractive white ash in contrast to the dark wrapper. Perfect short smoke to enjoy outdoors during the Summer.

Powerful, rich and complex with a textbook white ash. A deceptively strong small cigar that underpins the new range of Maduros. Similar in character and effect to the Trinidad Reyes when that cigar was first launched back in 2003. Available in either boxes of 25 or 10 cigars or singularly.
The smallest cigar "Secretos" is particularly full bodied and quite a surprisingly strong cigar. The "Magicos" follows the recent trend for small pocket sized robustos and is similar to the the excellent Petit Edmundo in having an impressive 52 ring gauge. Whilst the "Genios" is full of complexity and typical Cohiba flavour and aroma previously seen in the Limited Edition Piramides. Slow Burning and generating a distinctive white ash all three new cigars may need more time to develop their full potential but are a delightful smoke whilst fresh from Cuba. RECOMMENDED.
