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.
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.

Description
Brand Story
The release of limited premium editions has long been a common practice in the rum and whisky industry, which can feature experimental aging processes or special finishes. It's no surprise, then, that Panama-based Ron Abuelo has released a number of special editions in addition to its classic portfolio.
Product Detail
The 15 Year Old Cognac Cask Finish Rum is made from sugarcane sourced from the Finca San Isidro distillery. However, this is neither molasses nor freshly squeezed juice, but a honey-like syrup made by further processing the cane juice. While the maturation of Solera in ex-bourbon barrels gives the rum its basic sweetness and spice, the final refinement in Cognac barrels creates exciting flavors of dried fruit and coffee. Napoleon is added to clarify that the Cognac brandy has been aged in casks for at least six years prior to maturation.

Tasting Notes
Nose : Aromas of vanilla and musty bourbon oak lead to sweet fruit and pound cake with hints of green and black peppercorns over bitter wood.
Palate : A sweet caramel entry leads to bold cognac wood in the complex mid-palate, with a balance between sweet fruit and dry vanilla.
Finish : Wonderfully viscous, fading into echoes of honey, green banana and flowers.
