San Cristobal is a Habano brand created to pay tribute to Cuba's historical capital. The new vitola called OFICIO is named after what used to be Old Havana's main street and where people of such "noble trades" as scribblers, intellectuals and small cigar makers set up shops. A little bit harsh especially the first third, this cigar reminds us with the Petit Corona made for the Festival del Habano 2000 in the black limited edition boxes. Will definetaly imrpove with age
