El Laguito Humidor

This exquisitely detailed model of El Laguito is made from sycamore with inlays of ripple sycamore, bird's eye maple, burr oak, holly and Indian ebony. 

Intricate marquetry detailing, architectural mouldings and lippings are used in the decorative relief of the front and side elevations, and the building sits resplendently atop a recreation of the famous Laguito front steps, where cigars are traditionally enjoyed. The lid of the box is flat, to mirror that of the Laguito building, and is decorated with quarter matched ripple sycamore and a marquetry emblem of the Cohiba cigar brand.

The main compartment of the humidor houses three lift out trays with capacity for approximately 194 cigars. The humidor is lined with cedar and features a Cigar Spa humidification system. There are four secret compartments hidden within the structure – one hidden within the steps which houses cigar scissors and matches, and two either side of the building on push catches. These are ideal for storing special cigar bands. There is a fourth which is so secret its whereabouts cannot be revealed!

The Cohiba brand was created for Fidel Castro in 1966 and El Laguito became the legendary house where this top secret cigar was produced. Only Fidel, heads of states and diplomats were given Cohiba cigars as very special gifts. Cohiba was first made available more widely in 1982 and today is the most prestigious cigar brand in the world. The leaves used for Cohiba are a selection taken from the finest Vegas Finas de Primera in the Vuelta Abajo region. Uniquely amongst Habanos cigars, two of Cohiba’s ‘filler’ leaves undergo a third fermentation in barrels.
