A San Cristobal just for Cuba.
This first regional edition from San Cristobal de la Habana cigar will most certainly please a lot of Cuban aficionados.
As usual, the brand has decided to borrow its name from one of Havana’s fortresses to baptize this new cigar. Indeed, the fortress of San Carlos de la Cabaña located at the entrance of the Havana harbour, was built by the Spanish, when Cuba was one of their colonies. Currently used as a prison facility, it is interesting to know, that Che Guevara set up his headquarter there, back in January 1959.
Succeeding the 2018 Punch La Isla Edición Regional Cuba, the San Cristóbal de la Habana, La Cabaña is the 6th cigar to be dressed with a second "Exclusivo Cuba" band.
The vitola chosen by San Cristóbal de la Habana for this first regional edition, is a Dobles (50 x 155 mm). Also more commonly known as a Robusto Extra, this module is one of the most frequently used in the regional editions. In fact, there have more than 14 Dobles produced in regional editions since 2006.
Usually reserved for special productions in a broader sense, one Habanos brand does however offer the Dobles in regular production. We are talking about the Montecristo with the Double Edmundo, which entered the catalogue in 2013.
As with its predecessor, production of the San Cristóbal de la Habana La Cabaña is limited to 10,000 individually numbered boxes with 10 cigars each, exclusively produced for the island of Cuba.
