The Cohiba XV

True to its Cohiba tradition in every detail, Cohiba XV is the most full-bodied expression of the brand's uncompromising standards. From its rich, lacquered box of mahogany to its dark Capa Corona wrapper of the most thoroughly aged Ecuadoran Sumatra, Cohiba XV stands for Extra Vigoroso. And in keeping with the cigar's superior quality, it can be made only in limited quantities. The most distinctive leaf of a Cohiba XV cigar is its sun-grown Sumatra wrapper from Ecuador. Harvested only from the tops of the tobacco plants, each of these wrapper leaves is aged in tercio for three years. The flavor is then enhanced by aging all of the leaves again for six months in crates of fragrant cedar. In crafting Cohiba XV cigars, the most flavorful Nicaraguan Ligero and Dominican Piloto Cubano Ligero are bound with the richest three-year-old Connecticut Broadleaf. The result is a cigar that is made, not only to please, but also to impress.
