Picture of the cohiba-35th-anniversary-humidor

Just when you think that the Cohiba brand has done more than enough to impress us all, out comes a new story. Well it’s not exactly new but it’s definitely new to me. The Vancouver Cigar company still has the 35th Cohiba Special Edition Humidor (Yes believe it or not, they STILL have one left!).

What is so special about this one?

Well for starters, this humidor was released in 2002. Plus the Cohiba cigars have been aging for 6 whole years in this humidor.

Can you imagine the complexity of the flavors locked within this treasure chest?

You get about 135 ‘Well aged’ Cohiba cigars.

After calling these guys up, I was told that they’ve already sold two of them and now they have the number 422/500 Cohiba humidor left.

Now are you ready for this?

Below is an excerpt from the Vancouver Cigar Press Release:

“The vitolas (Size of cigars), are all dressed to impress with a special cigar band solely created for this 35th anniversary, edition. Included are 35 Cohiba Lanceros, 20 Cohiba Esplendidos, 20 Cohiba Robustos, 20 Siglo V and two unqiue Cohiba sizes (20 Gran Corona) and (20 Piramides) that have only been included in this edition and will never be mass produced again.”

Did I just read two special sized that will NEVER be mass produced? Now that is impressive.

You can even get this Humidor straight from their website by clicking here:

PS: Or you can send me the fifteen gz and I can get it for myself :) - feel free to do so :)

Another great stogie.  The Cohiba Maduro Piramides are similar in taste to the Genios.  The smaller ring gauge makes it a little more of a tight draw.  With that said the Piramide also seemed to be a bit smoother, some of the more subtle flavors in the cigar seemed to have been more evident than in the larger Cohiba Maduro.

I got them from a shop other than my regular hang-out and they were a little less humidified than I prefer.  I have laid down a couple in my humidor for a couple of weeks and will let you know how those smoke at that time.  Overall this is a great 35-40 minute smoke.  It is smooth, subtly spicy yet a bit stronger than some of the other Cohiba’s.

As a side note I noticed that there are some great deals on boxes of Cohiba Robustos and Cohiba Esplendidos ($450.00) online at Vancouver Cigar… I have verified the authenticity with a visit to their storehouse last week.

I attended a cigar club reception recently hosted by the Vancouver Cigar Company.  They had a few of these in stock and I have ordered them online from elsewhere but these were fresh out of the humidor.  The Piramide also referred to as a torpedo  is something new to Cohiba (last 3 years)

This is another great addition to the Cohiba family.  This was a complex smoke.  Rich and spicy, and noticeably consistent right until the end.  These are a classic smoke, and meet up to the Cohiba brand.  Like the Maduro 5 they are also great value per dollar overall.

I like an easy draw so that would have to be the only thing that I didn’t find totally satisfying about this one.
