Privada Storytelling
A Dark Elegance That Honors Cuban Heritage
Cohiba Nicaragua Robusto reinterprets the iconic Cuban Cohiba legacy through the bold lens of Nicaraguan terroir. Draped in a lush, oily Oscuro wrapper and built with aged Jalapa and Estelí long-fillers, it blends strength and balance. This cigar doesn’t rush—it unspools in layers: first deep cocoa and espresso, then leather and cedar, finishing with spice and dried fruit. It’s a statement of refined power and complex lineage, ideal for those who seek tradition with a modern twist.
