Will the listed price include duty + VAT for my country?
The Duty / Ships column above tells you exactly that. Each retailer listed price is all-in (excise duty + VAT included) only in their home country. Buy from a German retailer as a German buyer: what you see is what you pay. Buy cross-border (e.g. a Swiss retailer shipping to Germany, or any EU retailer shipping to the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, or Ireland) and the destination country will charge its own tobacco excise + VAT at the door — typically €100–€300 extra on a box of 25 Habanos, sometimes much more for the UK.
If you set your destination country on the page, every row that is genuinely all-in for you gets highlighted in green. The dimmed rows are honest-looking prices that will cost more than they show.
How does Cohiba Behike 52 compare to other Cohiba cigars?
The Behike line — BHK 52, 54, and 56 — launched in 2010 and rewrote what a Cuban cigar could be. The Behike 52 is the entry vitola of the three, a 4.7-inch Robusto Extra wrapped in a sun-aged Habano 2000 leaf and filled with the rare medio tiempo leaf, taken only from the top two leaves of the strongest tobacco plants and harvested in roughly one out of three crops. Habanos S.A. allocates the Behike globally on tight country-by-country quotas, which is why a box of ten is often listed as 'on request' or 'sold out' at the same retailer that has Robustos in stock.
If you want a side-by-side comparison of Cohiba other vitolas at current European prices, the SKUs we track are: Cohiba Robustos, Cohiba Siglo IV, Cohiba Espléndidos, Cohiba Siglo VI. Each link opens its own live price-comparison page.
Is the price for Cohiba Behike 52 likely to drop?
Habanos S.A. (the Cuban state tobacco monopoly) sets the worldwide release-price floor for every Habano in this catalogue. That floor went up roughly 40% during the 2022–2024 global price harmonisation, and Habanos has signalled further annual increases through 2027. So the long-term trend is up, not down.
Short-term, prices fluctuate at the retailer level — Swiss promotional weeks, German LCDH clearance, the occasional Spanish over-stock. The Finder catches those. A drop alert with no target price will email you on any meaningful reduction; setting a target locks the alert to your specific budget.

The smoke itself is dense, oily, and remarkably balanced. The first inch carries earth and dark chocolate; the body opens into espresso, leather, and a touch of black pepper around the band; the final third delivers a sweet woody finish that aficionados often compare to a vintage Pauillac. Across Europe a box of ten sits in the SEK 17,000–20,000 band (~€1,500–€1,700) in Sweden and lifts to CHF 2,860 (~€3,000) at Swiss LCDH retailers. Verify the box code before purchase — counterfeits are commonest on this exact SKU.
