The Cohiba Esplendidos was first introduced in 1989 and quickly became one of the most sought-after cigars in the world. It is one of three cigars in the Cohiba "Linea Clasica" series, along with the Cohiba Robusto and the Cohiba Exquisitos. The Churchill-sized smoke packs a considerable punch, and at its best, it showcases a level of power and complexity that is hard to find anywhere else. The Cohiba Esplendidos measuring 7 inches in length with a ring gauge of 47, Churchill format, features a full-bodied tobacco blend. The initial flavors are characterized by cedar and spice, which gradually give way to leather, earth, and coffee notes. The smoke is smooth and creamy, with a long and satisfying finish. The cigar is made entirely by hand using only the finest tobacco leaves, which are aged for a minimum of three years before being rolled, which helps to enhance their flavor and aroma. For the ultimate pairing experience, enjoy the Cohiba Esplendidos with a glass of vintage Scotch whisky, such as a Glenfiddich 21 Year Old or Macallan 18 Year Old, whose rich and complex flavors will complement the cigar's deep, creamy notes, enhancing its refined profile. Alternatively, pair with a fine aged rum, which will complement the cigar’s sweet undertones and elevate the entire experience, creating a memorable moment.
