Rum‑Finished
Cohiba Macassar
Introduced in 2016, Cohiba Macassar pairs a Connecticut Habano wrapper with a Connecticut Broadleaf binder and Dominican/Nicaraguan fillers, all aged with a final year in Dominican rum barrels; it sits in the medium to medium‑full lane and delivers cedar, cocoa, baking spice and light black pepper.

Macassar is Cohiba's luxury experiment with extended aging and a final year in rum barrels: Connecticut Habano wrappers over Broadleaf binders and Dominican/Nicaraguan fillers that gain a rounded woodiness from that finishing step. The profile opens on cedar and cocoa, moves into baking‑spice territory—cinnamon and gingerbread—with nutty bread and light black pepper rounding the second half. Construction and burn are consistently solid, and the rum‑barrel finishing adds a discreet sweetness and polished wood note that separates these cigars from straight Connecticut or Dominican blends.
