Cohiba Siglo VI – Gran Reserva Cosecha 2003

Specialist retailers and collectors worldwide eagerly awaited the Cohiba Siglo VI Gran Reserva Cosecha 2003. At its very first presentation, on the gala evening of the 11th Festival del Habano, it became clear: this cigar is a new star in the Habanos sky. The Cohiba Siglo VI Gran Reserva 2003 is the first Gran Reserva ever to be launched on the market. For it, the best tobaccos from the excellent 2003 harvest, grown in the renowned San Juan y Martínez and San Luis areas of Pinar del Río, were left to mature.

Over a period of five years, all the tobaccos required for a Habano – wrapper, binder and the three filler tobaccos – were carefully selected, fermented and regularly checked. After this maturation period, the best torcedores of the Cohiba factory “El Laguito” in Havana rolled these cigars in the Cañonazo format (150 mm length, ring gauge 52).

That the choice for Habanos' first Gran Reserva fell on the top brand Cohiba is only logical: Cohiba is considered one of the most prestigious and best-known premium cigar brands in the world. The Cohiba Siglo VI format is also among the most popular vitolas and was therefore chosen for the premiere of the Gran Reserva. This resulted in a truly unique Habano that surpasses everything that has come before.

The trade press worldwide showered this excellent product with top ratings, thus confirming the success of this extraordinary concept. Only 5,000 individually numbered boxes of 15 cigars each exist worldwide. In keeping with the standing of this cigar, the boxes are finished in elegant black piano lacquer and luxuriously appointed.
