Cohiba Ambar

Cohiba Ambar – A Rare Modern Classic from El Laguito

The Cohiba Ambar is a modern addition to Cohiba’s range, produced at the brand’s historic El Laguito factory in Havana since Cohiba’s founding in 1966 as Habanos’ flagship luxury marca. Rolled in the distinctive Placeres vitola at 132 mm (5.2″) with a generous 53 ring gauge, it sits between a robusto and a larger format, offering a substantial smoke for those who already know and love the Cohiba style.

Since its release the Ambar has proven difficult to find, selling out quickly wherever it appears. At medium to medium to full body with around 45 minutes of smoking time, it delivers the brand’s signature elegance in a broader ring gauge that gives the classic Cohiba character extra depth and richness.
