Forged Cigar Company is informing retailers of its Weller by Cohiba 2026 release, Cigar Coop reported on November 10. It is the sixth consecutive year Cohiba has teamed up with Buffalo Trace’s Weller bourbon for a cigar release, and this year’s edition stands out because it features a U.S. broadleaf binder aged in Weller C.Y.P.B. barrels — C.Y.P.B. being an acronym for Craft Your Perfect Bourbon. The 2026 edition is the first Weller by Cohiba to age tobacco in C.Y.P.B. barrels: the 2022 and 2023 editions used Weller 12 Year barrels, the 2024 edition used Weller Full Proof barrels, and last year’s 2025 release used Weller Antique 107 barrels.
The rest of the blend pairs an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper with fillers from Honduras, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. The cigars are produced at General Cigar Dominicana and offered in one size, a 6 x 50 toro. Each cigar is packaged in a white and gold tube styled after Weller C.Y.P.B. packaging, and the tubes come in ten-count boxes, with numerous retailers pricing the cigar at $34.99 per cigar.
