Brief Introduction: Cuba's Cohiba Maduro 5 Genios and the Maduro 5 series (consisting of the Genios, Mágicos, and the Secretos) debuted at the 9th Habanos Festival in the year 2007. It was the new Cuban Maduro (dark wrapper) cigar line from Cohiba.
Flavours: A good-looking Genios or that emanates a spicy aroma as it burns. Capa Madura (dark/Maduro wrapper), is the upper leaf of the cigar tobacco plant better known as the Ligero. The predominant flavours of dark chocolate with sweet espresso, toasted tobacco, and wet earth. Also a little full but a nice woody flavour with a hint of cocoa.
Synopsis: What makes this Cuban vitola special is, the top leaves on the plants (called coronas) are picked later than normal to assure that the tobacco is as rich and ripe as possible. The tobacco is then fermented longer to give more colour and flavour to the leaf. Almost all the Cohiba Maduro 5s are made in the popular Partagas factory in Old Havana near the capitol building.
