New WorldEverydayCohiba Blue Robusto
A bolder, more affordable non-Cuban Cohiba from General Cigar — built on Honduran OSA tobacco for an earthy, medium-full everyday smoke.
Cohiba Blue is General Cigar's more accessible, bolder non-Cuban Cohiba — positioned below the classic Red Dot on price but with more body. Its signature trick is using the same Honduran Olancho San Agustín (OSA) leaf for both the wrapper and the binder, which is unusual and gives the cigar a cohesive, earthy backbone.
What it tastes like
This is a medium-to-full smoke with an earthy, savory character: cedar and earth up front, then coffee, leather, and a solid black-pepper kick. It's noticeably stronger and more rugged than the smooth, nutty Red Dot — a meatier, everyday Cohiba rather than a refined one. The multi-country filler keeps it lively.
Who it's for
A good value pick for everyday smokers who want more punch and don't mind a less polished profile. Pair it with coffee, a bourbon, or a stout. New to judging how much strength you enjoy? Our cigar strength guide helps you find your level.
