Cohiba was created in 1966 as Havana's premier brand for diplomatic use only. From 1982 it was offered to the public in three sizes: Lanceros, Coronas Especiales and Panetelas. Three more sizes - Esplendidos, Robustos and Exquisitos were added in 1989. In 1992 the five sizes of La Linea 1492 were announced: Siglo I, II, III, IV and V. Siglo VI, Maduro 5 and Behike series were also introduced recently.
Cohiba is among the most expensive and sought-after cigars in the world.
It has a superb rich and smooth flavor. The original Cohiba lines are classified as a medium to full flavored cigar among Havanas, while the Siglo serie with its new blend is more medium flavored.
