HABANOS, S.A. PRESENTED PUNCH PRINCESAS: A NEW LIMITED EDITION CELEBRATING THE BRAND'S 185TH ANNIVERSARY
Founded in 1840 to serve the growing British market, Punch has since built an unmistakable reputation in the world of premium tobacco. The Princesas vitola pays tribute to the many women who play a vital role in the Habanos universe - from fields and factories to point of sale and aficionados themselves - honouring them as an indispensable pillar of the brand.
Punch Princesas, with Edmundo factory name (52 x 135 mm), offers a balanced medium-strength blend in a classic 1960s format thoughtfully reimagined for today's enthusiasts. Each Habano is crafted '"Totally Handmade with Long Filler ", aged for a minimum of two years, and produced using wrapper, filler, and binder leaves meticulously selected from fields in the Vuelta Abajo* area of Cuba's Pinar del Río* region.
This is presented in an exclusive 20-unit box, specially designed to honour Punch's 185th anniversary with a well-deserved tribute.
The anniversary launch event in Limassol began with an elegant cocktail reception, followed by a formal programme hosted by Grace Rayyes . The highlight of the evening was the official presentation and tasting of Punch Princesas Edición Limitada 2025 - a homage to the women whose craftsmanship and artistry help shape the world of Habanos. A majestic unveiling, enriched by carefully curated artistic performances, lent a ceremonial touch befitting such a memorable occasion.
Guests were then treated to a six-course gourmet dinner, thoughtfully paired with Punch Princesas and select Punch vitolas, creating a truly immersive sensory experience.
Rodrigo González, Director of Strategic Marketing at Habanos, S.A., highlighted the significance of the launch: "

Princesas
52 x 135 mm in length
Medium
A Habano with an exceptional appearance, wrapped in a mature, reddish-brown wrapper with a silky, refined sheen.
The draw is correct and the burn is excellent, forming incandescent rings that progress evenly from the start, producing a compact ash that is light grey to grey in colour. On the palate, it offers a delicate and measured strength with subtle bitter nuances.
The smoke reaches a pleasant medium intensity, with a slightly persistent aftertaste and intense tobacco flavours, toasted notes and cedar.
A creamy and unctuous smoke envelops the palate, culminating in a well-defined medium intensity and a refined and pleasant finish.
This vitola offers a satisfying experience, lasting approximately 50 minutes.
