Brand Story

Founded in 1891 by Francisco Fonseca, the brand was manufactured in a small factory on rue Dragones in Havana. It was sung by the poet Federico Garcia Lorca: ‘I'll go to Santiago with the blond head of a Fonseca...’. Francisco Fonseca was responsible for wrapping the cigar in a thin sheet of Japanese paper. He also had the idea of creating a tasting room in his factory to test the blends chosen by his customers. Fonseca also specialised in making cigars for banquets, receptions, clubs, etc.Trinidad is one of the most prestigious brands of Habanos. The brand was created in 1969 and, like Cohiba, remained an exclusive gift for diplomats and foreign dignitaries for many years. In 1998, the brand was commercialised. The Trinidad brand is aimed above all at Habanos lovers looking for absolute quality with an exclusive character.

Description

For many, No. 1 is the flagship product of the Fonseca brand. It's not just the format that suggests this, but also the aromatic structure. The typical earthy, woody notes are supported by a light, pleasant sweetness reminiscent of fruit and honey. The strength is slightly more pronounced than that of the Delicias or Cosacos, but still within the average range. The variety of aromas is very manageable and, as with all Fonseca cigars, pleasantly differentiated. A perfect entry-level cigar.Launched in 2004 and retired after eight years, this vitola left a lasting mark on cigar lovers. In 2024, Habanos S.A. revived it for the Trinidad brand’s 55th anniversary during the Habanos World Days in London. Presented in elegant boxes of three, the cigars feature three bands, including a commemorative anniversary band and the iconic “T” foot band. The medium-bodied Robusto Extra measures 6 1/8” by 50 ring gauge, with a signature pigtail cap. Hand-rolled with select Vuelta Abajo leaves, it preserves the classic, aromatic character of the original.
