Habano isn't a type of tobacco per se, it just means that the specific variety of tobacco can be traced back to Cuba. For example, Corojo, Criollo, Pelo de Oro, these are all examples of "Habano". On the other side, Connecticut is not a habano as it has no origins there, same with Sumatra which originated in Indonesia, or Cameroon (Africa). You get the idea.

Can't say I've ever smelled something I would describe as burning plastic from a T52. How long ago did you receive the cigars? If it's recently, you might just want to stick them in the humidor for a few months.
