Celebrating 15 Years of Cohiba's Premium Behike Line: A Unique Collaboration

Introduction to the Prestige of Cohiba
Since its inception in 1966, Cohiba has stood as a symbol of premium cigar craftsmanship. Recognized as one of the world’s most prestigious cigar brands, the name ‘Cohiba’ derives from the rolled tobacco leaves smoked during rituals under the guidance of a spiritual leader known as ‘Behike’ from the Taino tribe. In 2010, Cohiba launched the Behike line, using rare ‘Medio Tiempo’ leaves that grow at the top of the tobacco plant. The uniqueness of these leaves contributes to the exceptional depth and richness of flavors that cigar aficionados seek.

A Unique Commemoration
As we celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Behike line, S.T. Dupont has unveiled an exclusive collection that resonates with the intricacies and elegance of this celebrated brand. This collaboration is not merely a celebration of cigar culture but an homage to rarity and refinement. Behike’s blend of traditional excellence and artistic expression shines through in this special collection, inviting enthusiasts into an unparalleled journey through the art of cigars and the rich culture that encircles them.

A Harmonious Design
The collection showcases a spectacular design where the iconic ‘Diamond Head’ motif of S.T. Dupont beautifully merges with the Behike checkerboard pattern. Crafted using black lacquer and gold accents, each piece exudes a weighty presence and sophistication. The celebration logo and the emblem of the Amerindian head enhance the design, establishing a strong connection to the cultural heritage of the cigar’s origins.

For instance, the Ligne 2 lighter has been treated with S.T. Dupont's signature deep lacquer finish, which emphasizes the elegance of its dark color scheme. Additionally, the collection includes a variety of accessories such as a matte lacquer-finished adjustable cutter and an embossed leather cigar case that can hold two cigars. The meticulous proportions and use of high-quality materials portray the excellence that the Behike line stands for.
