The tobacco used to fill the cigars is unique among Cuban marques because it
undergoes a third fermentation process in barrels, which is reputed to give it a
smoother flavor than other cigars. Originally all Cohíbas were made at the El
Laguito factory, a converted mansion located on the outskirts of Havana. Later,
production of some Cohiba vitolas was expanded to other factories.
The
flavour of these cigars tends towards medium to full-bodied.
