Trinidad - Reyes - Single
Trinidad - Reyes - Single
A single cigar, the ideal way to try this size before committing to a box.
Added in 2003: a short, characterful cigar for a quick smoke.
Named after the historic town of Trinidad on Cuba's south coast, Trinidad dates from 1969 and was used only as a state gift to foreign dignitaries until it went on limited public sale in 1998, when the Fundadores was the only size. Habanos class Trinidad as medium in flavour.
Connoisseurs' notes
Published reviewers commonly describe the Reyes as having pepper, earth and grass with wood, cocoa and sweet spice.
