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
Rocky Patel cigars have built a solid reputation in the United States and are now reaching Europe. Of Indian origin and lawyer in California, Rocky Patel was not predestined for the cigar factory. It was her personal passion that led her to produce a cigar in Honduras. Thus, in 1998, he created the “Rocky Patel” brand and his cigar manufacturing company: the Indian Tabac Company.
He set up an ultra-modern factory in El Paraiso, near Danli, Honduras. This project took shape in collaboration with Nestor Plasencia, a Cuban who successfully emigrated to Nicaragua and who was beginning to develop his activities on the other side of the border. Nestor Plasencia would provide the best possible stewardship in terms of sourcing high quality tobacco, installation, aging and experienced rolling labor.
In 2002, the name of the company became “Rocky Patel Premium Cigar Inc” to further affirm the role played by its owner. In 2007, 18 million “Rocky Patel” cigars were sold.
