Havana Cigar Exchange - Worldwide Shipping of Cuban Cigars
This cigar has been produced to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Habanos Distributor in the Middle East, Phoenicia Trading.
Such a special event requires a very special treat, and for this Habanos SA produced the Ramon Allones Phoenicio. This is the first vitola to be named after a company, an honor granted to Phoenicia by Habanos as a sign of appreciation for long years of hard work and smooth successful business relations.
The Ramón Allones Phoenicio Edición Regional Exclusivo Líbano, is one of the REs released to the market for 2008, which means they actually got to the market closer to 2009. Originally only 6,000 boxes of 30 cigars each were supposed to be sold in Beirut’s duty-free shops, the only place you could buy them on the market, but the cigar’s huge popularity prompted the trader to release a secondary production run of 3,000 boxes of 15 cigars.

About this Cigar: First release of the Edmundo Dantes brand exclusively for the Mexican market. Edmundo Dantes Conde 109 comes in 109 format (7 1/4 x 50) and only 600 boxes of 25 cigars were released in 2007.
Because Montecristo is a “global” brand it cannot be used for an Edición Regional. As such, the Edmundo Dantes brand was used for this release. The Edmundo Dantes are distributed by Importadora y Exportadora de Puros y Tabacos, which is the official Habanos importer for Mexico.

The Diplomaticos Bushido Cigar is a Regional Edition Cuban Cigar from the Asia Pacific area of the world. The Diplomaticos Bushido measures 7 1/4 inches by 50 Ring gauge. Its vitola is known as the ’109’, famous for its tapered head similar to that of a piramide but more rounded at the top. An almost totally forgotten Vitola amongst modern Cuban cigars.
The Bushido really is extra special because it was produced to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the first Japanese citizen visiting Cuba! The citizen was of course a Samurai (Bushido could translate to “the way of the Samurai”) and this message can be seen through the carefully crafted Cigar stick but also its outer packaging.
The Cigar itself comes packaged in decorative outer box which demonstrates its Pacific routes. The ornate black shell with gold foil really enhances the Samurai based history.
