Trinidad
Media Luna Box Of 12 Cigars
TRINIDAD
Trinidad is named after the beautiful 16th Century city of La Santísima Trinidad (The Holy Trinity), listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, which is situated on Cuba’s south coast.
Trinidad, as a Havana brand, dates back to 1969 but for many years, like Cohiba, it was made only as gifts to foreign diplomats. Not until 1998 was it released for general sale and then only in small quantities.
At the start there was only the one size of Fundadores before more were added through the years (In 2003 three more sizes: Reyes, Coloniales and Robusto Extra and then in 2009 the Robusto T - In 2011 Habanos S.A. announced the withdrawal of Robusto Extras and Robusto Ts from regular production). In 2009 Trinidad’s livery and its cigar band were updated to recognise the prestige that the brand commanded.
For several years Trinidad was made at El Laguito, the Cohiba factory, where its uniquely fragrant and aromatic, medium flavoured blend of filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo region was developed.
By the end of 2004 demand for Trinidad had outstripped the production capacity at El Laguito and it was decided that the manufacture of all the brand’s sizes should be transferred to Pinar del Rio City. It is here that Trinidad is made today close to the famous Vuelta Abajo plantations.
All sizes are ‘Tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally hand made vitolas
MEDIA LUNA
When purchased as a box, these cigars resented in semi boite nature (SBN) boxes of 12, each dressed with a signature pigtail cap, this is a unique size within the Habanos portfolio. Perfect with a a glass of champagne or a classic mojito.

"Unmistakably herbal, this cigar also brings a smoke of toast, oak and cedar. There’s a sweet underpinning as well before the herbal notes recur on the finish. The draw is a touch firm, but the burn remains even..."
