Trinidad Founders

The Trinidad Fundadores is slender and long, majestic and graceful. Its fragrance is characterised by tobacco and tree bark. When lit carefully, it reveals its presence in the room, albeit subtly at first. The aroma unfolds on the palate from the very first puff, and only a few puffs are needed to experience the full variety of flavours. Slightly peppery and with a woody, undergrowth note right from the start, it combines nuances of nuts and a hint of honey sweetness. The classic division into thirds is revealed here in all its splendour. The second third reaches its climax before the cigar slowly fades away.

Trinidad - exclusive cigars from Cuba

Trinidad is named after the enchanting town of La Santísima Trinidad (translated: The Holy Trinity), which was built in the 16th century and is located on the south coast of Cuba. This city is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Trinidad brand was introduced in 1969 and, like Cohiba, was initially intended exclusively as a gift for foreign diplomats. It was not released for general sale until 1998, but only in limited quantities.

What Cigar Aficionado says about it

" This long Lancero is a complex combination of savoury and sweet flavours. It begins somewhat floral and grassy before notes of cinnamon, cappuccino and caramel unfold on an undercurrent of toast, black pepper and a mineral finish. " Cigar Aficionado, 01.12.2021
