Apparently the cubans (los cubanos, not los cubaños) think it's spelled
without one. Searching for "habana habanero" on google turned up this online
newspaper- "El Habanero, edicion digital en español"
http://www.elhabanero.cubaweb.cu/ with no tilde.

Also, http://babelfish.altavista.com/  translates habanero to Havanan, and
lists no translation for habañero.

Also, from diccionarios.com, a spanish language dictionary:

habanero
http://www.diccionarios.com/index.phtml?diccionario=dgle&query=habanero
1. adj.-s. De La Habana, c. y prov. de Cuba.

habañero
http://www.diccionarios.com/index.phtml?query=haba%F1ero&diccionario=dgle
El término habañero no ha sido encontrado en el diccionario.

Translated- "The term habañero has not been found in the dictionary."
