Talisman Limited Edition 2017 (Vintage 2020)

The Cohiba Talisman was released in 2017 as a limited-edition cigar, with only 5,000 boxes of 10 cigars produced to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Cohiba brand. It was globally launched on November 8th, 2017, in London, UK, and was a tremendous success, leading to its continued production until 2019. As a result, it is possible to come across both 2017 and 2019 box codes. The cigar was named the Cigar of the Year by Cigar Aficionado magazine in 2017, further increasing its popularity among cigar enthusiasts who praised its complex flavor profile and impressive construction. Today, the Cohiba Talisman is considered the most appreciated Cuban cigar by many Cohiba aficionados. When it comes to Cohiba cigars, the leaves undergo a famous 'third fermentation' in wooden barrels, contributing to the unmistakable Cohiba flavor that is smoother and has well-rounded subtle flavors. The Talisman is a 6 1/8" by 54-ring gauge, Robusto Extra format cigar wrapped in a dark, pigtailed wrapper. The smoker will experience layers of honey, minerals, and almond notes with each puff before the bolder impressions of cocoa powder and oak emerge.
