Cohiba has announced the release of the Riviera Toro Tubo, a new addition to the critically acclaimed Riviera line. The cigar maintains the blend’s signature box-pressed construction and features a square aluminum tubo.
First introduced in 2023, Cohiba Riviera marked a departure for the brand with a San Andrés wrapper and box-pressed format — both firsts for Cohiba. Since launch, Riviera has received multiple accolades across all four of its available vitolas.
The Riviera blend is handcrafted in Nicaragua and features:
- San Andrés wrapper
- Honduran Connecticut binder
- Four-leaf filler from Honduras’ Jamastran and La Entrada regions and Nicaragua’s Condega and Estelí.
Medium to full-bodied in strength, Riviera is marked by its complexity, balance and nuance.
Cohiba Brand Ambassador Sean Williams said:
“Riviera has been one of the most talked-about blends in the Cohiba portfolio. The response from both critics and fans has been incredible. A tubo offering for this blend is something we’ve been asked about since launch, and we’re excited to finally deliver it.”
The Riviera Toro Tubo is a full-time addition to the line and is offered in a 6 ½ x 52 box-pressed Toro vitola. Each cigar is packaged in a box of 10 with an MSRP of $24.99 per cigar. Shipments begin to authorized Cohiba retailers in May 1st. Riviera is handcrafted at Scandinavian Tobacco Group Estelí, S.A.
The Riviera lineup now includes the following front marks:
- Lancero Box-Pressed (7 x 38)
- Toro Box-Pressed (6 ½ x 52)
- Toro Box-Pressed Tubo (6 ½ x 52)
- Perfecto Box-Pressed (6 x 60)
- Robusto Box-Pressed (5 x 52)
