Weller by Cohiba

The Weller by Cohiba 2025 edition arrives as a refined 6" × 50 Toro, elegantly presented in signature red and gold aluminum tubes and ten-count boxes that highlight the partnership between Weller’s celebrated bourbon legacy and Cohiba’s masterful cigar artistry. This year’s blend showcases an Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed wrapper over a U.S. Broadleaf binder aged in barrels that once held Weller Antique 107 bourbon — a first in the series — with fillers sourced from the Dominican Republic, Honduras, and Nicaragua. The result is a complex yet balanced smoke, delivering an opening bouquet of smooth oak and toasted nuts that deepens into layers of vanilla, caramel, cocoa, and gentle spice as it progresses.

For the discerning enthusiast, the 2025 Weller by Cohiba is best experienced alongside carefully chosen pairings that enhance its bourbon-aged depth. Naturally, Weller Antique 107 itself makes a perfect companion, its sweet wheat notes harmonizing with the cigar’s oak and cream tones. Alternatives include a rich single malt Scotch or a smooth rye whiskey to highlight its spice and caramel character. A cup of medium-roast espresso or an indulgence of dark chocolate (70% + cocoa), toasted almonds, or mature cheddar also complement its flavor evolution. Each draw reveals a new facet of the blend — best savored slowly, with small sips or bites that mirror its transition from subtle sweetness to warm, peppery finish.
