Cohiba Riviera

The Cohiba Riviera Box-Pressed Robusto is the newest member of the Cohiba family of fine luxury cigars that I just added to my humidor. Along with delicious taste, Cohiba Riviera Box Pressed Robusto, along with the rest of the line, represents several firsts for this legendary brand. The cigar is the first-ever box-pressed offering by Cohiba, It’s also the first time that Cohiba has used a San Andrés wrapper and Nicaraguan Condega long filler tobacco for any blend. The rest of the blend includes additional Honduran long filler tobacco secured underneath a thick Connecticut- broadleaf binder. After lighting this stick, I was greeted with a complex medium bodied cigar loaded with rich flavors of pepper, leather, earth, and hints of chocolate. I simply loved smoking this box pressed Nicaraguan beauty from Cohiba, and plan on adding many more to my humidor.
