The San Cristobal de la Habana 25 Aniversario is a distinguished double corona, measuring 164 mm by 54 ring gauge, known as a sublime vitola. Its smooth, glossy colorado wrapper invites a firm touch, promising a refined experience.
At the cold draw, earthy tones mingle with hints of aged wood, while the draw itself is perfectly calibrated.
The first third opens with subtle, lightly peppered spices and noble wood notes resting atop a soft, honeyed background—all within a moderate body. Combustion and draw remain impeccable.
As the second third unfolds, the power inches upward and the flavor palette deepens with earthier undertones. The smoke, previously round and full, grows slightly drying.
In the final third, strength rises by a notch, yet the overall flavor profile holds steady, delivering a well-crafted but not dramatically evolving journey through the last puffs.
Conclusion: Created to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the brand and released exclusively in 200 collectible humidors within Cuba, this prestigious edition fulfills its promise. While not the richest vitola on the market, it remains a pleasurable and impeccably constructed tribute.
