"Trinidad is one of the anomalies within Cuba's collection of cigar brands. It started as a commercially unavailable cigar reserved for diplomats and dignitaries. Trinidad's newest addition, the Vigia is the exact opposite of the Fundadores. Rather than being long and slender, this cigar is short and squat. While it maintains Trinidad's signature pigtail cap, its heavy ring gauge offers an abundant smoke, lush with earthy truffle notes, oakiness and a warm nutty finish. Vigia is named for the watchtowers in the Cuban city of Trinidad erected to observe the sugarcane fields."

What we think:

This watchman takes pride of place on a nearby hill. Newly posted in a prominent position, the outlook is secure for this overseer of the fields. Maintaining standards in production, this wide-waisted official is full-on fineness, replete with luxurious tastes and extravagant interests. The cost may make you keep your distance, but don't be intimidated - he'll provide a splendid welcome. Stand watch for a while - see what it means to tower above others.
