Cuaba - Divinos - Box of 25
A box of 25 cigars, the connoisseur's choice for laying down and ageing.
One of the original 1996 sizes: a small perfecto with a rounded head.
Cuaba was launched in London in 1996, reviving the nineteenth-century art of the double figurado, a cigar tapered at both ends. The name is the Taíno word for a bush once used to light cigars. Every Cuaba is long filler, made with Vuelta Abajo tobacco, and classed by Habanos as medium to full in flavour.
Connoisseurs' notes
Published reviewers commonly describe the Divinos as having caramel and sandalwood with hazelnut and fig, turning to leather and coffee.
Summarised from published tasting notes (Cigar Aficionado and specialist tobacconists).
