Every Cohiba 1966 Edición Limitada 2011 is guaranteed 100% authentic, sourced directly from Habanos S.A. with the official seal and full traceability from Vuelta Abajo to your door.
The Cohiba 1966 Edición Limitada 2011 was released by Habanos S.A. to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Cohiba, the flagship marca born in 1966. Rolled entirely by hand at Cuba’s most prestigious factory using a careful selection of leaves aged for a minimum of two years, this Robusto Extra was produced in very small quantities and reserved for the most discerning smokers. Its Cañonazo Especial format, measuring 6.5 inches with a 52 ring gauge, gives the cigar real presence in the hand and an unhurried smoking time that rewards patience.
The opening third settles in gently, leading with sweet cream, a touch of mild earth, and the faint cedar that so often signals a well aged Habano. Through the middle the cigar gathers strength and complexity, with espresso and cocoa moving to the front while leather and a soft nuttiness fill out the body. The final third is where the 1966 shows its full character, pushing into richer coffee bean and molasses tones with a milk chocolate sweetness that keeps everything balanced rather than heavy.
This is a cigar built for the long game. The wrappers were already aged before rolling, and additional rest in a stable humidor tends to round the edges of the espresso and leather notes while coaxing out deeper sweetness. Keep it at roughly 65 to 70 percent relative humidity and a steady temperature near 18 degrees Celsius, and check your hygrometer regularly. Given its rarity, many collectors hold these for years rather than rushing to light up.
The 1966 Edición Limitada speaks to the seasoned aficionado and the serious collector more than the newcomer. If you already appreciate the house style of Cohiba and enjoy a smoke that evolves from creamy and approachable to full and brooding, this release will feel like a reward. It is the kind of cigar you bring out for an anniversary, a closed deal, or a quiet evening that deserves something exceptional.
What makes the Cohiba 1966 Edición Limitada 2011 special?
It was a limited release marking Cohiba’s 45th anniversary, rolled by hand from leaves aged at least two years and produced in very small numbers, which makes it both a collector’s piece and a genuinely complex smoke.
How strong is this cigar?
It is rated Medium to Full. The first third drinks fairly smoothly, then the body builds steadily through the middle and final thirds, so it suits a smoker who enjoys a developing strength rather than a flat profile.
What are its dimensions and format?
It is a Robusto Extra in the Cañonazo Especial vitola, measuring 6.5 inches in length with a 52 ring gauge, presented in boxes of 10.

The Cohiba 1966 Edición Limitada 2011 is a respectable cigar. Nice notes of cedar and cream, decent construction. However, I found it a bit one-dimensional compared to other Cohiba offerings. Not bad, but there are better options in this price range.

Decent cigar but not my favorite from Cohiba. The Cohiba 1966 Edición Limitada 2011 has good flavor - leather and spice - but didn't wow me like other Cubans I've had. Construction was fine, burn was mostly even. It's good, just not exceptional. Worth trying though.
The Cohiba Cohiba 1966 Edición Limitada 2011 is a quality cigar. Nice balance of flavor and strength. I enjoyed the coffee and dark chocolate notes throughout. Construction was very good with only one minor touch-up needed. Good cigar for experienced smokers.
