Trinidad
Since 1980, the Trinidad Fundadores was produced exclusively for Fidel Castro.
The only boxes that left Cuba were gifts to foreign diplomats.
On February of 1998, the brand was officially launched as an export in Trinidad, Cuba. The cigars were first made available in Canada and Mexico in April 1998, and later became available to the world market. This line initially featured one size, the Fundadore, which means Founder.
It is similar in size to the Cohiba Lanceros, measuring at a ring guage of 40 and a length of 7 and 3/4 inches.
This brand is named after one of Cuba's most beautiful cities, the Trinidad is produced only in the El Laguito factory, and packaged in an 'unusual' quantity of 24 cigars as well as in cabinets of 50.
Today the Trinidad brand has four different sized vitolas.
