Spotlight Brand: Cohiba Red Dot

June 3, 2012 |

One of the most famous brands in the world.

Considered this legendary brand’s flagship blend, Cohiba Red Dot is a cigar known to enthusiasts worldwide. The product of five years of intensive research and blending efforts by General Cigar—makers of Punch, Partagas, and Hoyo de Monterrey – this is one premium which deserves prime real estate in your humidor.

‘92’ rated, Red Dot is made in the Dominican Republic using only the finest tobaccos and the most qualified rollers. Finished with an authentic Cameroon wrapper that gives this handmade a naturally-sweet profile, Red Dot is medium to full-bodied and presents notes of wood, cedar, earth, cocoa, black pepper, and caramel. In fact, the word cohiba comes from the Taíno language meaning “sweet grass,” a term used by the native tribes who once inhabited the Spanish-speaking Caribbean. Given that very definition, the Cohiba brand name is ideally suited for this popular premium.

Q & A: What is Tooth?

What is Tooth?

A.
​To start, you often hear about a cigar wrapper being “oily.” In any cigar, the occurrence of natural oils is essential to the flavor of the tobacco. That's why enthusiasts worry about their cigars drying out. While you can always regain the moisture of a cigar, you can’t recoup those natural oils that exist in the tobacco.
