Selecting Cigars for their Return to Cuba: Packing for the Habanos Festival! | Kirby Allison

With just one day left until I depart for my first trip to Cuba, join me as I am faced one of the most delightful dilemmas: choosing the perfect selection of cigars from my personal humidor to bring on my first journey to the 2023 Habanos Festival in Havana, Cuba. Invited by Hunters & Frankau, the UK's exclusive importer of Cuban cigars, this trip is a long-awaited dream finally becoming reality.

In this episode, we're not packing suits and shoes; we're curating a collection of special cigars to take back to their birthplace. Edward Sahakian's wise advice echoes in my mind: cigars have a way of revealing their full character in the land where they were first rolled. While I anticipate indulging in the local offerings of Habanos cigars one can certainly find at the cigar mecca that is Cuba, there's something uniquely gratifying about enjoying a well-aged cigar in its homeland.

Together, we'll delve into my humidor and contemplate which cigars will make the journey to Cuba. Join me as we prepare for this once-in-a-lifetime experience and share in the anticipation of enjoying these meticulously aged creations in the very place they were meant to be savored.
