Every Cohiba Seleccion Reserva VINTAGE 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 Seleccion Reserva belongs to Habanos’ celebrated Reserva line, a special production first unveiled by Cohiba in January 2003. Cohiba sits at the summit of the Cuban portfolio, the brand once reserved for diplomatic gifts before reaching the open market, and this release honors that pedigree. The original presentation arrived as a humidified box of thirty cigars spanning five vitolas, with filler leaves aged for more than three years before rolling. Tobacco was drawn from the prized vegas of San Luis and San Juan y Martinez in the Vuelta Abajo, the heartland that supplies Cohiba’s finest leaf, and each stick carried the distinctive Reserva band alongside the classic Cohiba ring in gold lettering.
The opening third settles into a refined groove of cedar and warm earth, the kind of measured sweetness that comes only from properly rested tobacco. Through the middle, the smoke broadens toward roasted coffee and dark chocolate, with a faint nuttiness threading underneath and a creaminess on the palate that keeps everything cohesive. The final third leans richer and a touch more assertive, drawing out caramel and a deeper cocoa note while the medium to full body asserts itself without ever turning harsh. From light to nub it reads as a polished, slow-evolving Cohiba rather than a one-note smoke.
This is a cigar that rewards patience even after release, since the Reserva tobacco entered the box already well rested. Keep it stored at roughly 65 to 70 percent relative humidity and around 65 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit in a seasoned humidor, away from light and temperature swings. Given a year or two of further rest the cedar mellows and the chocolate and coffee tones knit together more seamlessly, so there is little urgency to smoke it young. A stable environment matters more than any single number, and a well calibrated hygrometer is the best insurance for a cigar of this caliber.
This release suits the seasoned aficionado who appreciates Cohiba’s house character and the added depth that aged Reserva tobacco brings. It is not the cigar for a beginner chasing something light, since the medium to full body and layered evolution are best read by a developed palate. Collectors drawn to limited Habanos productions and smokers who enjoy a long, contemplative session will find the most in it, ideally with an unhurried evening and a glass of something equally considered.
Is the Cohiba Seleccion Reserva a limited edition?
Yes. It was a special Reserva production featuring filler tobacco aged over three years and was distributed exclusively through the La Casa del Habano network, which made it considerably scarcer than the standard Cohiba line.
How strong is this cigar?
It sits in the medium to full range. The body is rich and well structured rather than overpowering, with the strength building gradually toward the final third.
What does the Reserva designation mean?
A Habanos Reserva is made with tobacco that has been aged for around three years before rolling, which gives a smoother, more harmonious smoke. This is distinct from a Gran Reserva, where the leaf is rested for roughly five years.

Good cigar but expected a bit more for the price. The Cohiba Cohiba Seleccion Reserva VINTAGE delivered on flavor (nuts and caramel) and construction, but lacked the complexity I was hoping for. Solid smoke, just not outstanding. Still enjoyable.
