San Cristóbal El Príncipe Cigar
The San Cristóbal El Príncipe cigar is a small yet captivating Cuban cigar that packs an impressive amount of flavour into its compact size. As part of the San Cristóbal de la Habana line, named after the original name of Havana, this cigar reflects the charm and heritage of its historic roots.
The El Príncipe is a Petit Corona format, measuring 4.3 inches (110 mm) in length with a 42-ring gauge. Its small size makes it ideal for shorter smoking sessions without compromising on complexity or quality. Hand-rolled in Cuba using expertly aged tobaccos from the famed Vuelta Abajo region, it boasts a smooth, slightly oily wrapper with impeccable construction for a perfect draw and even burn.

Despite its smaller size, it delivers an engaging and rewarding smoking experience that lasts about 30 to 45 minutes. Its approachable nature makes it suitable for both novice smokers and seasoned aficionados looking for a quick yet flavorful smoke.
This cigar pairs beautifully with a cup of rich Cuban coffee, a smooth aged rum, or a light sherried whisky. Its balanced flavours also make it a great companion to a fine red wine or a mellow herbal tea.
The El Príncipe is a testament to Cuban craftsmanship, offering all the richness and complexity of a full-sized cigar in a more convenient format. Its small size and versatility make it a perfect choice for moments when time is limited but quality is non-negotiable.
