In 2001, Habanos S.A. introduced the Habanos Collection (Colección Habanos) series.
San Cristóbal de La Habana, O´Reilly (56 ring gauge x 160 mm) is the vitola that gave prestige to the Volume IX of the Colección Habanos 2009 of which 1000 numbered units were made. This format paid tribute to one of the streets of La Habana Vieja (Old Havana) and to the 10thanniversary of the creation of San Cristobal de La Habana brand.
