Cohiba Cigars: Connecticut, Blue, Rubicon and the U.S. Collection
The Cohiba cigars sold in the United States represent a portfolio of distinct non-Cuban blends rather than a single tobacco composition. Individual collections use different wrappers, binders, fillers, countries of manufacture, and strength profiles, making the specific Cohiba line an important starting point when comparing cigars.
Current Cigars N Cigars inventory includes Cohiba Connecticut, Cohiba Blue, Cohiba Rubicon, and Cohiba Pequenos. The broader U.S. Cohiba portfolio also includes Red Dot, Black, Nicaragua, Macassar, Royale, and Riviera, along with limited-production releases.
Cohiba Cigar Blends
Cohiba Connecticut
Cohiba Connecticut uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper over a Mexican San Andrés binder with Brazilian Mata Fina, Dominican Olor and Piloto Cubano, and Nicaraguan Jalapa filler tobaccos. It occupies the mellow-to-medium side of the Cohiba portfolio. Current Cigars N Cigars inventory includes Connecticut Robusto and Gigante sizes.
Cohiba Blue
Cohiba Blue is a medium-bodied blend built around a Honduran Olancho San Agustín wrapper with tobaccos from Honduras, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic. The blend provides a different tobacco structure from the lighter Connecticut collection and is available across several traditional and larger-ring formats.
Cohiba Rubicon
Cohiba Rubicon uses an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper over U.S. Broadleaf binder with filler tobaccos from the Dominican Republic, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Produced in Honduras, Rubicon occupies the medium-bodied range and adds another distinct wrapper and country of manufacture to the Cohiba portfolio.
Cohiba Pequenos
Cohiba Pequenos provide smaller-format Cohiba cigars intended for shorter smoking sessions. Because Cohiba produces small-format cigars across different collections and tobacco compositions, the individual product specifications should be used to distinguish wrapper, origin, and blend rather than treating all Pequenos as a single full-size Cohiba blend.
Cohiba Connecticut vs. Blue vs. Rubicon
Cohiba Connecticut, Blue, and Rubicon differ substantially in tobacco composition. Connecticut uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper and sits toward the smoother end of the portfolio. Blue uses Honduran wrapper tobacco for a medium-bodied expression, while Rubicon uses Ecuadorian Habano over U.S. Broadleaf binder with a multinational filler blend. Wrapper and strength are therefore useful first comparisons among the three.
Cohiba Red Dot
Cohiba Red Dot is one of the established core blends in the U.S. Cohiba portfolio and is identified by the red dot incorporated into the Cohiba name on its band. It remains a separate blend from Connecticut, Blue, Black, Nicaragua, and the other Cohiba collections.
Cohiba Riviera
Cohiba Riviera introduced several technical departures within the portfolio, including the brand's first box-pressed regular-production cigars and first use of a Mexican San Andrés wrapper. The blend combines the San Andrés wrapper with Honduran binder and Honduran and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos.
Cohiba Macassar, Black, Nicaragua and Royale
The broader Cohiba collection extends beyond the blends currently represented in the Cigars N Cigars product grid. Macassar, Black, Nicaragua, and Royale each use separate tobacco compositions and occupy different positions within the portfolio. These should be treated as individual Cohiba lines rather than separate top-level cigar brands.
Where Are U.S.-Market Cohiba Cigars Made?
U.S.-market Cohiba cigars are produced in multiple countries depending on the blend. Current Cigars N Cigars selections include Dominican-made Connecticut and Blue cigars and Honduran-made Rubicon. Other Cohiba collections include production in Nicaragua, making country of origin a specification that should be checked at the individual blend level.
Choosing a Cohiba Cigar
Begin with the Cohiba collection rather than the brand name alone. Connecticut provides a lighter Ecuadorian Connecticut-wrapped option, Blue moves into a medium-bodied Honduran-wrapped blend, and Rubicon combines Ecuadorian Habano with U.S. Broadleaf binder. After selecting the blend, compare available Robusto, Toro, Gigante, and smaller-format sizes.
