Welcome to one of the most distinctive short-format Cuban cigars available today: the Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos. This compact Petit Corona first appeared in 2007 and quickly established itself as a favourite among aficionados who want the rich, sweet intensity of a Maduro wrapper in a conveniently short smoke. Whether you are exploring the Maduro 5 line for the first time or already appreciate the depth that five years of ageing brings, the Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos delivers an elegant and flavourful experience.
Each Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos measures 4 3/8 inches (110 mm) with a 40 ring gauge. It is a classic Petit Corona vitola that burns for approximately 20–30 minutes. The strength sits firmly in the medium to full range, offering enough body and complexity to satisfy experienced smokers while remaining approachable enough for those who prefer a more intense short cigar. The defining feature is the dark, oily Maduro wrapper that has been specially aged for five years before rolling – the hallmark of the entire Maduro 5 series.
These details place the Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos among the most concentrated and aromatic short Cuban cigars currently produced.
What makes the Maduro 5 line special is the number five. All wrapper leaves used for the Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos are cured and aged for a full five years before they are selected for rolling. This extended ageing process develops a deeper colour, a natural sweetness and a richer aromatic profile than standard wrappers. The leaves are picked at the optimum moment for ripeness and richness, then fermented for longer than usual. The result is a dark, lustrous Maduro leaf that gives the cigar its signature character.
Uniquely among Habanos, Cohiba’s filler leaves undergo an additional fermentation in wooden barrels. This third fermentation process – applied to the seco, ligero and, in some cases, the rare medio tiempo – removes harshness, enhances smoothness and creates the complex aroma and flavour that only Cohiba delivers. When combined with the five-year-aged Maduro wrapper, the Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos offers a depth of flavour rarely found in a cigar of this compact size.
The Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos presents a rich, sweetish Maduro character from the very first draw. Many smokers describe it as intense yet balanced, with a creamy mouthfeel that carries the darker notes without becoming harsh.
On the cold draw you will often detect cocoa, dark chocolate and a touch of sweet earth. Once lit, the first third opens with roasted coffee, dark chocolate, cedar and a gentle spice. As the cigar progresses, the flavours deepen into layers of espresso, cocoa, warm spice and a subtle molasses sweetness that comes from the aged Maduro wrapper. The final third brings a satisfying intensity of dark chocolate, coffee and a lingering sweetness that finishes clean and aromatic.
Despite its small size, the Cohiba Maduro 5 Secretos burns evenly and produces a dense, flavourful smoke. It is frequently called “a little jewel” because it concentrates so much of the Maduro 5 character into a short, elegant format. This makes it ideal when time is limited but quality is non-negotiable.
There are several clear reasons why this cigar continues to attract attention among UK enthusiasts:
