Altadis U.S.A. Inc, Trinidad, Trinidad, started in 1991, a world-famous cigar brand, originally designed specifically for Castro as a gift, only to important guests, quite mysterious
The Trinidad cigar was launched in 1991 and was designed specifically for Castro as a gift, given only to important guests, and other high-ranking Cuban officials could only give Cohiba cigars, thus adding to the mystery of this cigar. But that was before 1997, and from 1998 onwards, a small number of Trinidad cigars began to be sold on the international market, in boxes of 24 cigars, which were different from the usual 25 cigars, but there was a 50-count bottle, and the special thing was that it chose Canada and Mexico in North America instead of Europe as the first stop on the market, and Cuaba cigars launched in 1996, London as the first stop, and Vegas in 1997 Robaina chose Madrid as its first stop. Trinidad made its debut in early April 1998.
The origins of Trinidad remain a mystery to this day. Cuban leader Fidel Castro is rumored to have replaced Cohiba as an exclusive gift to heads of state after the creation of the brand. But in an interview with Castro in the summer of 1994 with Cigar Reader, he denied this claim and said that he was still more than happy to continue offering Cohiba cigars to friends and family who loved cigars.
Launched in 1991, the Trinidad was not officially introduced to the world until February 20, 1998, when it was officially introduced to the world at the Il Le Hotel in Havana, Cuba (i.e., the Hilton Hotel before the Castro Revolution).
In fact, back in October 1994 Marvin R. Shanken. Xie Anken), who once held a so-called century dinner at the Lauren restaurant in Paris, invited to share Trinidad cigars, which added mystery and rarity to the dinner. Some cigar books refer to this dinner, but the year is almost always wrong, when more than 160 guests from all over the world (including many socialites) attended the Century Gala and enjoyed three cigars: Trinidad Fundadores, Cohiba Pyramid, Cohiba "A" (these three cigars are not necessarily available if you have money). Each cigar was offered in 14 boxes of 50 cigars, each signed by Castro, with proceeds from the auction going to the Cuban Medical Relief Fund.
