Are These Iconic Cigars Still Worth It in 2025 | Swiss Cuban Cigars Reviews

Leave a comment

In the ever-evolving world of cigars, where new brands and bold blends are constantly emerging, some names continue to dominate the conversation—Cohiba, Montecristo, Partagás. These Cuban classics have earned their legendary status over decades, but in 2025, a question lingers for both seasoned aficionados and curious newcomers:

Are the iconic Cuban cigars still worth the hype?

At Swiss Cuban Cigars, we decided to revisit three of the most celebrated vitolas to evaluate whether time has upheld their reputation—or if modern cigar culture is shifting its gaze elsewhere.

1. Montecristo No. 2

The Iconic Torpedo

Few cigars are as universally recognized as the Montecristo No. 2. With its torpedo shape, medium-full body, and signature balance of cocoa, spice, and leather, it has long been a go-to for aficionados.

2025 Verdict:
The Monte No. 2 still holds its own. Aging continues to enhance its complexity, and recent production batches have shown consistent draw and burn quality. It’s a cigar that rewards patience and remains a strong contender for any humidor.

Still Worth It?
Yes — especially for smokers who value structure and balance with evolving depth.

2. Cohiba Robusto

The Prestige Powerhouse

Cohiba has always stood at the top of the Cuban pyramid. The Robusto size, in particular, is lauded for its creamy texture and layers of flavor—grassy notes, earth, a hint of sweet spice—all wrapped in luxury.

2025 Verdict:
Still a statement cigar. Its quality control remains high, and aging has softened any harshness present in fresh rolls. However, its rising price point has made it a luxury indulgence rather than a regular smoke for many.

Still Worth It?
Yes — but it’s best seen as a special-occasion cigar due to premium pricing.

3. Partagás Serie D No. 4

The Bold Standard

A favorite of those who enjoy full-bodied cigars, the Serie D No. 4 is rich, peppery, and intensely flavorful. It’s a workhorse cigar that rarely disappoints and has remained a top seller for decades.

2025 Verdict:
As bold and satisfying as ever. Partagás’ production has stayed remarkably consistent. Aged D4s are smoother and more refined, but even young sticks deliver a punchy, flavorful experience.

Still Worth It?
Absolutely — especially for smokers who want bold flavor without pretension.

What’s Changed Since Their Heyday?

While the cigars themselves have largely retained their character, the global cigar market has changed. There’s more competition from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Honduras, often at lower prices. However, Cuban cigars still offer something intangible: a link to heritage, history, and a distinctive terroir that’s impossible to replicate.

Conclusion: Do They Still Live Up to the Legend?

In short—yes, but with perspective.
If you’re chasing bold innovation and budget-friendly smokes, there are plenty of new-world options. But if you’re looking for time-tested quality, rich Cuban heritage, and the ritual of lighting something iconic, these cigars are still worth every draw in 2025.

Sometimes, classics are classics for a reason.

Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews the best way to wrap Cuban cigars for Christmas

And, luckily for Swiss Cuban Cigars customers, the team regularly shares their insight and expertise.

Swiss Cuban Cigars : popular sellers of Cuban cigars online

If you’re wondering who Swiss Cuban Cigars are, then all you need to know is that they’re a Gran Canaria based business that stocks the biggest range of authentic Cuban cigars in the world.

The customer service team prides itself on its expert knowledge, not only of the best Cuban cigars on the market but also on avoiding fake Cuban cigars. Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews new releases, news and stories about all the cigars on the market and offers commentary and insight on the cigar industry as a whole.

A Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews representative explains: “All our cigars are guaranteed as authentic brands – something that doesn’t always happen with other sellers. There is a huge market out there for fake cigars and one of our aims is to help our customers understand how to avoid getting stuck with counterfeit cigars from other retailers.”

This mission to spread the word about the danger of fake Cuban cigars is juts one part of the work done by the Gran Canaria based customer service team. Along with the excellent service as standard, Swiss Cuban Cigars also offers the best prices, fast delivery, the biggest choice you can find online, limited editions and much more.

The best Cuban cigars, industry analysis and information on everything cigar based

So, as well as regular Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews on new releases, old favourites, how to choose the best Cuban cigars online and tips and reviews of all the cigars available, the team also explains everything you could want to know about Cuban cigars – including cigar wrappers.

The wrapper on a Cuban cigar can be made from all kinds of different tobaccos. Explains Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews expert Natalie (customer service team): “While the company sells official Habanos cigars and exclusively authentic products, those new to cigars may not know that not all Cuban cigars are made in Cuba itself.

“Today, the name of some of the biggest sellers has been applied to cigars made in other countries but that, crucially, are made in the spirit of the old factories in Cuba. But when it comes to wrappers, pre-1990s, most Cuban cigars used ‘Corojo’ wrappers. However, this tobacco became susceptible to disease and by 2000, wrappers were more likely to be Corojo hybrids. This means that there are far more options available nowadays – but they’re all considered authentic Cuban cigars.”

Explaining Cuban cigar wrappers

Cuban cigar wrappers are best thought of as wrappers made ‘Cuban style. So, while the aging method, shade and variety of tobacco may vary, the finished product always retains the quality of craftmanship that made Cuban cigars so popular.

This workmanship spread from Cuba to other countries such as Peru, the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua over the last 40 to 50 years. However, there are still plenty of different brands that ensure the entire process is clearly linked to the original Cuban cigar factories.

Tobacco from Cuba goes back hundreds of years. In fact, when Christopher Columbus sent some of his men to Cuba in the late 15th century, they came face to face with indigenous people smoking herbs wrapped in leaves – basically a Cuban cigar!

The climate in Cuba means that every part of the cigar’s tobacco – the binder, filler and wrapper – can all be grown there. Over the centuries, Havana and Cuban cigars became much in demand in Europe, as they became a status symbol for wealthy people who could afford to import the expensive and fine tobacco.

In the 20th century, it was Corojo tobacco that was primarily used for Cuban cigars as a wrapper but eventually the term ‘Cuban cigar’ became much broader.

How Cuban cigars are manufactured

All Cuban cigars, whether made by Habanos SA or any other manufacturer, have to adhere to certain standards and traditions. This is why they always give you a great smoke and have complex flavor profile varieties.

The name itself denotes a level of quality that is given to handmade Cuban cigars and small-batch lines from brands. Whether the tobacco comes from the Vuelta Abajo region of Cuba or elsewhere, cigar lovers should expect a well balanced, seamless cigar that burns evenly for the entre smoke.

Customer service team member Natalie from Swiss Cuban Cigars says: “While Cuban cigars should always be of the highest quality, it’s important that customers understand that this isn’t a regulated name so it can’t be considered a 100% guarantee. This is why it’s important to buy from reputable retailers like us, as we can guarantee there are no fake products in stock, and can advise how to avoid counterfeit product.”

The advice from Swiss Cuban Cigars is to check that the different brands have the requisite green seal, are in their original sealed box and that they aren’t simply the cheapest cigars available. They should have a unique barcode and whether you’re making your first purchase or looking for limited editions for gifting purposes, always be careful to avoid retailers that sell fakes.

From Cuban cigar wrappers to wrapping Cuban Cigars!

Swiss Cuban Cigars understands that Christmas time is a time for cigars! Whether it’s gifts for the cigar lover in your life, or you’re looking to buy cigars for yourself, the team at Swiss Cuban Cigars prides itself on having all of the advice you need.

Assuming your cigars arrived already, and that the cigar aficionados in your life are waiting for their carefully chosen gifts, it’s time to think about how you can wrap them. Of course you can just pop your petit corona in a standard gift box, but you can also choose a more interesting way to wrap the gift.

Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews some ideas below, but are also careful to advise how to store the cigars before gift giving time.

Make sure your high end Swiss Cuban Cigars stay fresh

If you’ve really splashed out on something special in order to give the best possible smoking experience to the giftee then you absolutely need to be careful storing them before the big day.

Explains Swiss Cuban Cigars customer rep: “If you’ve gone for the expensive choice then they will be in their original sealed box. While this is a great way to ensure that they’re not fake cigars, but in terms of storage humidity and temperature matter – a lot.

“Winter and Christmas time are generally cold and dry, which means your chosen smoke could be ruined before you reach Christmas Day.”

Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews ways to store your great Cigars before Christmas Day

Remember that the cigars need to be just right to give the best smoking experience. Here are some ways to store them:

  • Grab some Tupperware boxes with proper lids and store them in there before you wrap them as gifts
  • Buy a humidor and wrap that instead (full of cigars, of course)
  • Wrap single cigars in separate, sealed plastic bags before wrapping them in festive paper.

Whichever storage method you choose, it’s best not to leave them under the tree as they can dry out more easily.

There are so many options available from Swiss Cuban Cigars, ranging from very high end special purchases to cheaper cigars at great prices.

And the benefit of cheaper choices is that you can be more creative when it comes to gift wrapping. Here’s what the team at Swiss Cuban Cigars suggests.

  • String the cigars onto fishing line (or an equivalent) to make cigar tinsel to hang somewhere in your house, or even on the tree.
  • Create a cigar bouquet using floral foam, wire and a vase to make a very special bunch of cigars as a gift.
  • Wrap individual cigars and cigarillos as stocking stuffer small gifts.

Swiss Cuban Cigars reviews the steps to take to save a half-smoked cigar

Leave a comment

When people are looking to buy Cuban cigars online, it can be difficult to know where to start. How do you avoid getting stuck with fake cigars , for example? Here is where we help and review the steps to save a half smoked cigar.

This is where Swiss Cuban Cigars comes in – they guarantee that they stock not only the largest selection of Cuban cigars online, but that every single box received is authentic and of the highest quality.

Part of the success of Swiss Cuban Cigars comes from its customer service team and its collective expertise in all things cigar related.

Keeping up with industry news from Swiss Cuban Cigars

As well as helping customers choose the ideal cigar brands for their needs, Swiss Cuban Cigars regularly posts reviews, updates and industry news. The Gran Canaria-based company is a one stop shop for everything related to Cuban cigars – including how to save a half-smoked cigar.

Happily, it’s absolutely possible to save and store a half-smoked cigar in a condition that allows you to enjoy it in future. Here’s how.

Interrupted when smoking your favourite cigar?

Every cigar smoker has been interrupted at some point – maybe someone has rung the doorbell just as you’re settling down to enjoy your cigar, for example. Whatever the reason for the interruption, you’ve been left with a half-smoked cigar – so how do you save it?

After all, if it’s a premium Cuban cigar, you could be looking at potentially wasting £20 worth of cigar if you’ve smoked the first third!

Saving a half smoked cigar step by step

First, ensure your cigar is extinguished in the correct way. The best way to do so without ruining the rest of the cigar is to place it in the ashtray and allow it to go out by itself. This takes up to around two minutes after you stop drawing air into the cigar through inhaling.

Next is to clean the foot of the cigar. To do this effectively, you need to cleanly cut the cigar around 1.5cm behind the ash line. Finally, you need to return the cigar to its original wrapping or, alternatively, secure it in a ziplock bag. Then put it into an airtight tube and store away from the rest of your cigar collection – above all, don’t return it to your humidor! If it goes back into a humidor then it will not be smokable and will have to be thrown away.

How to relight your half smoked cigar

Whenever you’re ready to smoke the rest of the cigar you need to relight it. We would recommend, however, that you don’t leave it longer than 48 hours at most otherwise it will taste terrible.

Before you relight the cigar, you need to purge it. When you originally smoked the cigar, air will have travelled throughout the whole thing and warmed all of the tobacco packed within it. This process leaves tar and oil in the rest of the cigar, which tastes horribly bitter – this is why you need to purge it.

To properly do so, light the end of the cigar and  inhale until your mouth is full of air. Then, blow it out through the whole body of the cigar. Complete this process three times and you will have successfully purged the cigar. If, after all of this, it tastes horrible when you relight it, it may be time to throw it away and buy some more from Swiss Cuban Cigars!

Integrating Cigars into Your Halloween Festivities

Leave a comment

As the shadows lengthen and the crisp whisper of autumn stirs the air, Halloween emerges as a splendid occasion to savor the darker, richer essences of fine cigars. This holiday not only calls for whimsical costumes and tales of the eerie and mysterious but also provides an exceptional backdrop for indulging in the sophisticated ritual of cigar smoking. Here’s how to artfully blend the spirit of Halloween with the timeless pleasure of cigars.

Curating the Ideal Cigars for Halloween

1. Selection of Dark, Intense Flavors: Embrace the spirit of Halloween by selecting cigars that mirror the intensity of the season with their dark wrappers and robust profiles. Maduro or Oscuro cigars are particularly fitting, offering deep, complex flavors that resonate with the festive mood. Look for cigars that hint at chocolate, coffee, or spices like cinnamon and clove—notes that echo the aromatic richness of autumn.

2. Special Editions for the Occasion: Many cigar makers delight in the season by offering limited edition cigars adorned with Halloween-themed bands or packaging. These special cigars not only enhance the smoking experience but also serve as perfect collectibles or conversation pieces during Halloween gatherings.

Hosting a Themed Halloween Cigar Evening

1. Creating a Mysterious Ambiance: Transform your smoking area into a haven of Halloween elegance with subdued lighting, flickering candles, and tasteful decorations that suggest an old-world charm mixed with the allure of the mysterious. Ambient music or soundtracks from classic horror films can subtly enhance the atmosphere without overwhelming the senses.

2. Dressing the Part: Invite guests to don costumes that reflect the opulent and enigmatic nature of a masquerade ball from a bygone era, or perhaps characters from famous Gothic novels. Adding a costume contest to the evening can inspire creativity and add an element of playful competition to the festivities.

3. Beverage Pairings with a Seasonal Twist: Complement the selected cigars with beverages that celebrate the essence of fall. Rich, spiced rums, pumpkin ales, or warm apple ciders make excellent companions to a good cigar. These pairings can highlight the subtleties of the cigar’s flavor while adding a layer of warmth to the chilly evening.

Engaging Activities for a Haunted Cigar Night

1. Pumpkin Carving with Artistic Flair: Integrate a pumpkin carving contest into your event, providing guests with the tools to create their own jack-o’-lanterns. This activity offers a delightful way to engage hands and minds, allowing for moments of laughter and artistic expression amidst puffs of aromatic smoke.

2. An Evening of Horror and Lore: Arrange an outdoor cinema with a selection of classic horror films, or create a circle around a crackling fire for a night of ghost stories and eerie tales. These narratives, shared under the open sky or by the flickering light of a fire, can beautifully complement the contemplative act of smoking cigars.

3. Fireside Ghost Stories: Gather your guests around a fire pit to share spine-tingling tales or personal supernatural experiences. The primal element of fire, essential for both storytelling and cigar enjoyment, serves to unite the group in a shared, intimate experience, enhancing the mystique and enjoyment of each drawn cigar.

Conclusion

Halloween is a canvas for the cigar aficionado—a chance to weave the richness of cigars into the tapestry of fall celebrations. Through thoughtful selection, atmospheric detailing, and engaging activities, your Halloween cigar event can transcend the ordinary, offering a night where every puff and every tale shared is imbued with a hint of mystery and a breath of the past. Embrace this hauntingly beautiful holiday as an opportunity to elevate your cigar experience into the realm of the extraordinary.

Swiss Cuban cigars reviews suggest opting for cigars with robust, bold flavors that can penetrate the chilly air, ensuring that each puff is as satisfying as in milder conditions. Shorter formats like robustos or coronas are recommended, as they provide a satisfying experience without prolonged exposure to the elements.

Art of the Cold Weather Light

Lighting a cigar in the cold is a ritual that demands precision. A windproof lighter becomes a crucial tool, ensuring that the foot of the cigar is evenly toasted without being charred by the harshness of an overzealous flame.

Swiss Cuban cigars reviews emphasize the importance of diligent humidor care, ensuring that cigars are preserved at optimal humidity levels to prevent them from drying out and losing their essential oils and flavors.

A rich, aged rum or a bold espresso can complement the profound flavors of the cigar, adding a layer of warmth and complexity to the smoke.

As outlined in Swiss Cuban cigars reviews, the key lies in thoughtful preparation, the right tools, and an understanding of how to adjust traditional practices to suit the chill of winter.
