Cuaba is in celebration and Habanos, S.A. is keen to astound its followers with the rollout of a special vitola dedicated to mark the brand’s 20th birthday, coupled with an exclusive handcrafted humidor to be on sale only in stores run under the Casa del Habano franchise.
The Cuaba 20 Aniversario vitola (ring gauge 56 x 170mm long) sticks to the brand’s signature double-torpedo format. The humidor –it contains 50 habanos- has been built with Cuban softwoods and boasts a luring and luxurious design, with symbolic elements that take us back to the discovery of tobacco and the origin of the Cuaba brand.
It was Christopher Columbus, in his diary on the arrival to the New World, the first to use the word cuaba in reference to the piece of burning stick that men always carried in their hands to light up “certain dry herbs” (cojiba), who then proceeded to suck in and give out wafts of scented smoke. Cuaba treasures that original fullness and beauty linked to tobacco, and the image of the abovementioned “burning stick” is outstandingly resembled in the humidor as part of its latch-open system.
Cuaba has made a name of its own in the making of habanos thanks to the peculiar shape of the double torpedo, a format that harks back to the 19th century when it was all the rage. Due to the complex making process it takes, the double torpedo reigns in the realm of the cigar-rolling art.
At the onset, Cuaba only offered relatively small vitolas. From 2003 on, large-size formats were added, such as the Distinguido (ring gauge 52 x 162 mm long), Salomón (57 x 184 mm) and Diademas (55 x 233), that have panned out to be icons within the brand. Cuaba is rolled completely by hand with long filler made of selected leaves from the Vuelta Abajo region in Pinar del Rio (D.O.P.)
