Cohiba Piramides Extra Cuban Cigars
- Size: 6 1/4 x 54
- Strength: Medium-Full
The introduction of Cohiba Pirámides Extra is designed to complete the range within the Línea Clásica, the first line created in the Cohiba brand. Pirámides Extra introduces the characteristic Línea Clásica´s medium to full flavor, produced as Totalmente a mano Tripa larga- totally handmade with long filler-, using the “selection of the selection” from the best tobacco plantations in San Juan y Martínez* (D.O.P.) and San Luis* (D.O.P.), in the Vuelta Abajo* zone (D.O.P.) within the Pinar del Río region* (D.O.P.) in Cuba. Made with the Línea Clásica blend, compriseng Volado , Seco and Ligero , these two last types of leaves have had the additional fermentation which is unique of Cohiba.
Although in the past various figurados- cigars tapered at one end- , such as the Pirámides vitola, have been created for specific occasions in limited numbers, such as the Reserva del Milenio and the Edición Limitada 2001 and 2006, Pirámides Extra is the first figurado that will become a part of the permanent Cohiba collection, as a part of the Línea Clásica.
Part of the original six sizes of the Linea Clasica, Cohiba’s first line made available to the public back in 1982. The leaves for Cohibas are the “selection of the selection” from the 5 finest Vegas de Primera (first class fields) in the Vuelta Abajo region. These leaves undergo an additional fermentation in barrels. This unique process produces a special aroma and flavour you will only find in a Cohiba. Made using the traditional Tripa Larga, Totalmente a Mano – long filler, totally hand made – technique.
