San Cristobal De La Habana - El Principe (Single Cigar)

Product Description: 

The San Cristóbal de La Habana cigar is a refined homage to Cuba’s capital city, named after the original name of Havana when it was founded in 1519. Introduced in 1999 to mark the millennium, this cigar line stands apart in the Habanos portfolio for its elegant, mellow complexity and historical charm.

Wrapped in a smooth, golden-brown Colorado Claro wrapper, the cigar is visually pristine — lightly veined with a silky sheen that reflects its expert craftsmanship. Beneath lies a blend of carefully aged long-filler tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo region, Cuba's most prestigious tobacco-growing area.

From the first draw, the San Cristóbal offers a creamy, approachable profile. The initial notes present subtle sweetness — toasted almonds, light caramel, and floral undertones — followed by layers of cedar, vanilla, and a touch of soft white pepper. As the cigar develops, hints of roasted coffee and earth add dimension without overpowering the experience.

Medium-bodied throughout, it’s celebrated for its balance and smoothness rather than raw power, making it an ideal companion for both newcomers and seasoned aficionados seeking a nuanced smoke. The burn is even, the ash firm, and the aroma distinctly Cuban — elegant and aromatic with a hint of honeyed wood.

Often overlooked, San Cristóbal de La Habana cigars deliver a contemplative, leisurely smoke — a celebration of Havana’s heritage, crafted for those who savor subtlety over strength.
