Cohiba Rubicon Gigante
Cohiba Rubicon Gigante
Built around a six-tobacco recipe and made in Honduras, the Cohiba Rubicon Gigante brings a broader, more contemporary approach to the non-Cuban Cohiba portfolio. This 6 x 60 cigar combines an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper with a U.S. Connecticut Broadleaf binder and a filler blend of tobaccos from Nicaragua, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic, creating a medium-bodied profile with more nuance than its price point might suggest.
The large-ring format gives the blend room to deliver layered notes of cedar, earth, pepper, cocoa, cream, and a touch of sweetness, with some impressions leaning herbal or lightly fruity along the way. Cigar Aficionado rated the exact Gigante size 90 points, adding useful context for smokers considering this vitola specifically. Smoked at an easy pace, the Cohiba Rubicon Gigante generally offers about 75 to 100 minutes of smoking time.
