Trinidad Vigia Appearance:
The cigar is looking beautiful and tightly rolled. The veins are virtually invisible, the seams are very tight, and the double cap is large and turned elegantly into the typical Trinidad pig-tail. The cigar feels good in hand, it seems well packed. The wrapper has a nice medium brown, Colorado claro, with some darker shade, almost like a Colorado Maduro. The wrapper is smooth to the touch, not very oily but it looks impeccable.
Trinidad Vigia Smoking Notes:
Before lighting up
At cold, the wrapper smells of faint tobacco. Once cut, the draw is good, not too easy, with just the right amount of resistance. The pre-light draw gives some flavors of earth, of fresh grass and of roasted nuts.
Burn/ Draw
Upon lighting the cigar, the cigar lights up easily and starts with some smooth notes, no harshness whatsoever. The first few draws offer typical Trinidad flavors, some roasted nuts, earth, with some spicy notes of cloves. The burn line is good, a bit wavy at times, maybe because of the cigar’s young age, but it doesn’t require any touch-ups. Throughout the whole smoke the cigar generates tons of nice and thick smoke.
Initial third:
The first third of the cigar is well balanced and beautiful. Woodsy flavors are dominant along with some sweet spices notes of cinnamon. The notes of roasted nuts give the Trinidad Vigia some flavors reminiscent of a mocha, with very round flavors. Overall, the cigar is at a mild-medium body, and has some delicious creaminess to it.
Middle third:
In the middle third, the body of the cigar increases in strength and it is now a medium body. The flavor profile is similar to the one offered in the first third, starting with some dry woodsy notes, then evolving towards some wet wood. The earthy notes are becoming more intense, along with some stronger flavors of spices, pepper, black coffee and a bit of bitter tobacco. The roasted hazelnuts are still around, along with some rich flavors that are almost like a cake. The hints of grassiness along with the kick from the cinnamon/cloves make this cigar a pretty complex and round smoke.
Final third:
In the final third, the body increases again in intensity, the smoke is powerful and dominant flavors are of earth and of spices. There is also some sweetness that joins the mix and the nuttiness remains. It is enjoyable until the nub.
In summary, the Trinidad Vigia is a great spicy medium-full smoke that has great potential for aging.

Cigars were promptly delivered in 2 weeks but not wrapped in cellophane and the Habanos code was missing so I could not verify the authenticity to the website. The seals were intact as a repeat customer, I accept that these are fine.
Matthew –
The taste is excellent with prompt delivery
Gary –
I am a fan of Cuban cigars. This was a solid Cuban flavor cigar. Hints of coffee and creamy but had a little zing on the end. Just wish it was a little longer.
Timothy –
This cigar is my new favorite. I saw a competitor selling it for less, so I asked luxury cubans if they would match it. They did, no other questions asked.

Almost as good as the 2010 Short Robusto T. This is a very good and smooth cigar. Ring size is a little larger than I would like but is still very good cigar especially for the price. You can’t go wrong with this one. Trinidad is a top notch brand that doesn’t disappoint.

I get red impeccable. Burn taste consistency all top of the line. But most importantly the delivery time was prompt, not a day later than was told

The delivery was flawless, and the cigar was near that. Perfect draw, excellent smoke throughout, never burned hot, flavor was consistently excellent. Hopefully there will be a deal on these at some point, but the smoke was top notch!

If you are like me and enjoy habanos, it is always a treat to find a new and memorable smoke. This Trinidad cigar was a beautiful medium smoke with balanced spice throughout each third. Definitely a new favorite.

Delicious, First time tasting that Trinidad and I were not disappointed.

Trinidad is truly a pleasure to smoke. luxury cubans has by far the best customer service, and reasonable delivery times. Expect up to 4 weeks for delivery, but when you observe the care and packaging to ensure your order is delivered fresh, you will understand and appreciate luxury cuban’s commitment to your satisfaction. Keep calm, be patient and enjoy!
Terry –
Tho cigar has great med to full flavor, lots of smoke and easy draw. Good down past the band imo. Delivered relatively promptly, well packaged and fresh. Best to give a few days- week in humidor to equalize for perfect smoking experience.
