This is interesting news for a few reasons, to me at least. First, I’ve known Sean Williams for nearly 10 years, you can see one of my early interviews on YouTube (https://youtu.be/ia-6awwc_TA , I’d embed the video, but age restrictions no longer allow that!) from the 2011 IPCPR when he was with his company El Primer Mundo. I was quite new at the video thing and the audio is terrible. I also met his friend Willy Herrera in his booth then, who was working with him on his Miami blend which was made at El Titan de Bronze. Another reason this is exciting is that one of my favorite cigars, one that I just smoked this past week, is the Cornelius and Anthony Cornelius, which was also made at El Titan de Bronze (sadly no longer, I still have a handful). I’ve visited that little factory and they make some great cigars, and Sandy Cobas is a really lovely lady. I’m sure t
hey will be great cigars!
LIMITED EDITION RELEASE CELEBRATES BRAND’S PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
Cohiba today announces the launch of Cohiba Serie M, the first collection of Cohiba to be handcrafted by artisans in the U.S. for sale in the U.S.
General Cigar’s Cohiba Serie M is the result of a collaboration between its Cohiba team and the family-owned El Titán de Bronze Cigar Factory, with each cigar handmade in Miami’s Little Havana district. The limited edition collection is crafted by Cuban expatriate cigarmakers.
This exquisite collection will be available through fine cigar shops across the U.S. starting on April 12. Only 5,000 boxes have been made.
Cohiba Brand Ambassador Sean Williams said, “Cohiba Serie M has
been a passion project for all of us on the Cohiba team. To take a brand as iconic as Cohiba and make a cigar in the U.S. in collaboration with a boutique, family-owned factory has been an honor for all of us. Serie M gives a nod to our long-standing commitment to craftsmanship, our
focus on innovation and alludes to the exciting releases that we are planning in the future.”
Sandy Cobas, owner of El Titán de Bronze said, “I am honored that we were chosen to craft the first American-made Cohiba cigars. For this important collaboration, we created a cigar using only the most exquisite tobacco, working together with the Cohiba team at General Cigar. Unlike in other countries where cigar makers work in teams, our cigarmakers at El Titán de Bronze personally create each cigar from start to finish, and we put their name on every single box they make. Our team of rollers have achieved the highest skill level that a cigarmaker can achieve, with only a select few having the dexterity and artistry required to meet our stringent qualifications. Every cigar represents the very best of each of our rollers and is an opportunity for us to share their artistry with the entire country. The buzz for Cohiba Serie M is building in Miami and based on what I’m seeing, these cigars will sell out as soon as they hit the cigar shops.”
Crafted according to old-world techniques and featuring a double binder, closed foot and triple cap with a signature fan, Cohiba Serie M is a medium-to-full-bodied cigar of depth and character. Made with exquisite, aged tobaccos, the cigar is enveloped in a lustrous Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper, a first for Cohiba. The binder is Nicaraguan and the blend features hand-selected Nicaraguan Jalapa and Esteli and Dominican Piloto Cubano tobaccos.
The Cohiba Serie M smoking experience is rich, creamy and bold, layered with subtle spice notes and nuances of roasted coffee beans.
Cohiba Serie M is available in a 6” x 52 Toro which will sell for a suggested price of $29.99 per cigar or $299.90 for a box containing ten cigars.
