Ediciones Limitadas 2016: Trinidad Topes, Montecristo Dantés and Romeo y Julieta Capuletos

Trinidad, Montecristo and Romeo y Julieta are the three brands selected by Habanos, S.A. for these Ediciones Limitadas (Limited Editions) 2016 and will be arriving to the different points of sales worldwide in the coming weeks.

Habanos, S.A. launch the Ediciones Limitadas 2016, Montecristo Dantés, Trinidad Topes and Romeo y Julieta Capuletos, that are reaching to the different outlets around the world.

Cigar News: Habanos S.A. Announces 2016 Ediciones LimitadasThe Ediciones Limitadas – Limited Editions- of Habanos* are appreciated and expected by the aficionados every year. These Ediciones are special because their vitolas do not exist in the regular range of sizes of the brand portfolio. They are also distinguished by a careful selection of all their leaves – wrapper, filler and binder -, which have been aged for a period of at least 2 years. The dark wrapper dressing these Habanos, coming from the highest levels on the shade grown black tobacco plant, is another characteristic that identifies them, as this wrapper is darker than the one of the vitolas in the regular range of the brand.

All Habanos of these Ediciones Limitadas are made “Totalmente a Mano con Tripa Larga” (“Totally handmade with Long Filler”) and with leaves selected in very small quantities from the Vuelta Abajo* zone, in the region of Pinar del Río*, Cuba. These Habanos have been made by Cuban expert cigar rollers, willing to meet the expectations of the most demanding Habano enthusiasts.
