HAVANA, Nov. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Habanos, S.A., in collaboration with [I.E.P.T.

Trinidad Villa, with its Julieta No. 3 factory size (47 × 170 mm), delivers a smooth and balanced smoking experience of medium strength. Its light brown (carmelita claro) wrapper encases a carefully selected blend of leaves from the Vuelta Abajo* area in the Pinar del Río* region - considered the world's finest tobacco-growing land. The result is a Habano of exceptional refinement, offering evolving notes of wood, toast, and cocoa, with a smooth and elegant finish that stays true to the signature Trinidad blend.

These exceptional Habanos are presented to the market with an additional cigar band highlighting the uniqueness of the product concept, available only through La Casa del Habano and Habanos Specialists (LCDH + HS). Each cigar also features a foot band displaying the vitola name. All are packaged in a specially designed 12-unit box created for this launch.

Trinidad Villa, which takes its name from the colonial villas of Cuba and the city of Trinidad — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — pays tribute to the elegance, architecture and cultural legacy that inspire the brand, underlining its deep connection with Cuban heritage and art.

TASTING NOTES

Brand: Trinidad
Commercial name: Villa
Factory Name: Julieta No. 3
Dimensions: 47 x 170 mm long

Appearance: This is a Habano with an excellent appearance, a light caramel colour, shiny, silky and compact.

First third: Correct draw from the first puffs, excellent combustibility, showing us uniform and compact ash, with shades of light grey to grey. Pleasant, fresh and balanced aromas and smoke, bitter notes with medium persistence, elegant roasted and woody notes, strength and very pleasant tobacco flavours on the palate and aftertaste, giving it a medium complexity typical of the brand.
