San Cristóbal de La Habana
San Cristóbal de la Habana was the original name of Havana, Cuba's
capital city, when it was founded in 1519; San Cristóbal (St
Christopher) in honour of Columbus and La Habana after an Indian name
for the site.
San Cristóbal de la Habana cigars were introduced in 1999 as a
tribute to the city's long history on the threshold of the new
Millennium.
Its range is composed of four vitolas with a light to medium flavour
using tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo region. Each is named after one of
the fortresses that defended the city in the days when it was the hub
of Spain's Latin American Empire.
All are ‘totalmente a mano, tripa larga' -totally hand made, long
filler and two sizes, El Morro and La Fuerza, are not found in any other
Habano brand.
