New Cohiba Blue getting rave reviews!

For anyone with even the slightest knowledge about cigars, the name Cohiba does ring a few bells! This premium brand of cigars from General Cigar is easily associated with luxury smoking experiences that smoke up some extravagant flavors. But, with its latest Cohiba Blue line of cigars, the makers have decided to offer its consumers the very same luxury but at a more affordable price!

The Legacy of Cohiba

The Cuban Cohiba Cigars have a priced position in history. Cuban Cohibas were exclusively made for Fidel Castro and his high level officials in the 1960s. The 1970s saw Cuban Cohibas graduate into limited edition production. But it was not until the 1980s that these cigars went full production and were made available across the globe. It is this legacy, quality and limited availability that has turned Cohiba into a luxury brand coveted by smokers around the world.

The Release of Cohiba Blue

Right from the days of Castro, the Cohiba brand has been manufacturing top-shelf blends with superior standards with steep price tags to boot. However, Cohiba Blue is their most affordable cigar yet! We are glad though that it is only the pricing that came down. All the quality control and attention to detail is intact.

This tempting chance for smokers to test out a luxury brand at an affordable price has the Cohiba Blue flying off the shelves. The retailers across the United States have pointed out that the new Cohiba Blue cigars are garnering stellar reviews from across the country.

Affordability is what makes it a Winner

The idea is to let smokers experience the luxurious taste of Cohiba at a reasonable price. For most cigar smokers, Cohiba is that one ultimate luxury brand they always coveted. But, the high-end pricing of most of the Cohiba cigars had them restricted.

The Cohiba Blue cigar is a very welcome addition to the brand as it has a much lower price compared to regular Cohiba brand cigars. This makes it an affordable option for avid cigar smokers to try out the luxurious flavor of the famed Cohiba brand. The Cohiba Blue cigar has successfully managed to decode the quality and brand value of Cohiba into a more approachable and affordable everyday cigar.

The Cohiba Blue and its Make

The Cohiba Blue cigars come in eye-catchy blue hand-painted boxes that capture your attention every time you visit a store. The gorgeous cigars are covered in a silky smooth Honduran wrapper and the tobacco fillers in it transverses three countries. The Honduran Olancho San Agustin is used for the binder as well. The layered binder-wrapper design does wonders to the overall smoking experience. The three-nation blend of the cigar is filled by Nicaraguan, Honduran and Dominican tobaccos. Though crafted and produced in Dominican Republic, the Cohiba Blue Cigar is predominantly Honduran. The best rollers and top quality tobaccos ensure Cohiba Blue's premium looks and unparalleled flavor. The selection of the tobacco is top-notch with its fine blend of fillers coming from the most renowned tobacco-growing areas in the world.

The Experience and the Flavor Profile

The whole cigar has a firm texture with its head considerably harder than the rest of it. The wrapper leaf has a sweet chocolate-like aroma while the foot of the cigar has a more earthy smell.

The Cohiba Blue begins with a pleasant spicy flavor that happens to be more subdued than dominant. The cigar also slowly reveals the perfect amount of natural tobacco sweetness. Hints of sweet leather, cream and caramel follow the initial sweetness. Cohiba Blue exhibits a few earthy flavors coupled with hints of cocoa, pepper and toast in almost every puff you take. Soon, the earthly tones of the cigar make way for a sweeter raisins flavor and a fair hint of vanilla. The sweeter profile starts to dominate the earthy flavors with a fine combination of vanilla, raisins and sweet syrup added into the mix. This cigar also has a cinnamon profile highly reminiscent of a cinnamon roll. For the most part, it's the earthy flavors and cocoa notes that remain dominant. Towards the end, savory pepper flavor and a woody profile run the show. But, the sweetness of the cigar still remains in the form of raisin flavor and burnt sugar.

The cigar burns well throughout the entire smoking experience and it was perfectly even as well. It needs minimum or zero touchups or relights. The positive thing to note is that the cigar does not have any unpleasant or bitter flavors at any stage of the smoking process.

Why Cohiba Blue is one of the best Cohiba Made?

The Cohiba Blue is the latest addition to the famed lineage of the premium Cohiba handmade cigars. The cigar's firm construction, even burn, and legendary taste make is the ultimate luxury stogie. The Cohiba Blue cigar is definitely one the smoothest and richest Cohiba blends you will ever get to smoke.

But, the best part about the Cohiba Blue line of cigars is that it has managed to make this luxury affordable for all. This cigar is extremely value-priced compared to its counterparts from the same brand. The Cohiba Blue offers a chance for everyone to get a taste of the complex flavors and profligate taste that a luxury brands like Cohiba offer.

The cigar manages to keep the premium status of the Cohiba brand intact and brings it to the market at an attractive pricing.
