Trinidad
Trinidad La Trova LCDH - Single Cigar
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.
LCDH LA TROVA
Trinidad La Trova (52 ring gauge x 166mm length) leaves are specially selected from the Vuelta Abajo region in Pinar del Río, Cuba, the best land in the world for growing tobacco. To manufacture this product, expert Cuban torcedores - cigar rollers - work painstakingly to create a meticulous and exquisite cigar that meets the expectations of the most discerning and demanding Habanos smokers.
This release is an unprecedented vitola in the brand (Cañonazo Especial) only used previously in the 2011 Limited Edition, Cohiba 1966. With this world presentation, the Trinidad brand continues to show a clear commitment to strengthening its range of heavy ring gauge Habanos, joining its other two offerings, Trinidad Vigía (54 ring gauge x 110 mm length) and Trinidad Topes Edición Limitada 2016 (56 ring gauge x 125 mm length).

"The draw of this long, pigtailed toro is firm, offering a thin, herbal smoke with notes of wood, nuts and citrus before the gravelly, stony finish. Its uneven burn never fully corrects itself..."
