COHIBA MADURO GENIOS BOX OF 25

How to Enjoy Your Cohiba Maduro 5 Genios

THE CUT

Using a premium double-guillotine cutter, remove approximately 2–3 mm from the cap with a clean, precise cut. The generous ring gauge rewards a careful cut with an exceptionally smooth and effortless draw.

THE LIGHT

Use a butane lighter, cedar spill, or wooden match to light the cigar. Slowly toast the foot while rotating it evenly before taking your first draw. Avoid fuel-based lighters to preserve the cigar’s naturally rich flavor profile.

THE DRAW

Take slow, deliberate draws every 45–60 seconds. As the cigar develops, enjoy luxurious transitions of dark cocoa, espresso, cedar, roasted nuts, molasses, leather, and gentle baking spices. Allow each stage to unfold naturally without rushing the experience.

THE ASH

The Maduro 5 Genios develops a dense, compact ash that reflects its premium long-filler construction. Let the ash build naturally before gently tapping it away to maintain a cool, even burn.

Storing Your Cuban Cigars

Proper storage is essential to preserving the quality, flavor, and longevity of your Cuban cigars. Follow these guidelines to ensure your Cohiba Siglo I remains in perfect condition.

IDEAL CONDITIONS
○ Humidity: 65 – 70% relative humidity
○ Temperature: 16 – 18°C (60 – 65°F)

Too dry — the cigar will crack, lose aroma, and burn unevenly.
Too humid — the cigar may develop mold and become difficult to draw.

USE A HUMIDOR
A Spanish cedar humidor is the gold standard for cigar storage. Cedar naturally regulates moisture and imparts a subtle aroma that enhances the complexity of your cigars over time.

IN INDONESIA’S TROPICAL CLIMATE
Indonesia’s heat and humidity require extra care. We strongly recommend:
○ Storing cigars in a properly seasoned cedar humidor
○ Placing your humidor in an air-conditioned room
○ Using a calibrated hygrometer to monitor humidity levels consistently

WHAT TO AVOID
○ Do not store cigars in the refrigerator without a proper humidification system
○ Keep away from strong odors — tobacco absorbs surrounding scents easily
○ Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources
○ Never store in sealed plastic bags for extended periods

REST YOUR CIGARS
If your cigars have just been delivered, allow them to rest in your humidor for at least 48 – 72 hours before smoking. This allows them to acclimate to their new environment and reach optimal condition.
