Trinidad


Touted as being "one of the finest cigars made in the 20th century" the Trinidad Fundadores or (Founders) cigar was originally launched in February 1998 but its origin lies shrouded in the history of the El Laguito factory where it was originally produced in limited quantities as a diplomatic gift for virtually two decades before being made commercially available.

On Monday 10th November 2003 the Hilton Hotel, London, was chosen as the venue for the launch of 3 new sizes of Trinidad cigar- a Robusto Extra, Coloniales and Reyes. These rich and complex cigars, whilst still comparatively young will undoubtedly develop into Cuba's second premium brand after Cohiba.

Now we are fortunate enough to receive stock of the new Trinidad Robusto " T ". Presented in boxes of just 12 cigars with the characteristic "piggy tail" twist of tobacco enclosing the cap these cigars add a traditional Robusto size to the Trinidad range. With wrappers virtually identical in shade and colour to those first used with the larger Robusto Extra the new "T" cigar smokes the same. A welcome addition to a range or marque which is considered second only to Cohiba in terms of status in Cuba.
