Cohiba: Black Robusto Crystal Tube Cigars

Cohiba's Black is a stick that doesn't go for much complexity, but that does bring a good dose of richness, and darkness — a lot of darkness. It provides a dark chocolate and coffee flavor profile with slight sweetness, through a combination of Connecticut broadleaf maduro wrapper, aged Domincan Piloto binder, and Dominican and Mexican leaf for the filler blend.

As an "en Crystale" this robusto vitola comes with each stick in its own cork-stoppered glass tube. While your standard tubo (usually metal) is meant for travel, and designed to breathe (at least a little) as well, this air-tight type is ideal for aging a cigar without it taking flavor from the cedar or other cigars in your humidor.
