Trinidad Cigars is named as a tribute to the Santísima Trinidad city raised during the 16th century, and listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, which is located on the southern coast of Cuba.

Trinidad, as a Habano brand, dates back to 1969, and for many years, like the Cohiba brand, it was only used for gifts to foreign diplomats.

It was in 1998 when Trinidad Cigars was available to smokers for general sale and then only in very limited quantities.
