Havana Cigar Exchange - Worldwide Shipping of Cuban Cigars
About this cigar: The Por Larrañaga Larrañaga 47 or PL47 for short is a classic “Churchill” vitola and is presented in an impressive unvarnished Semi Boîte Nature box of 50 cigars. This is the first time a UK Habanos Regional Edition has been offered to the market in this format. As with some previous UK Regional Editions, an old papeleta from the brand has been recreated to dress the outside of the box.
Unlike most cabinets/boxes housing fifty Habanos, the cigars are layered in three rows of thirteen and one row of eleven rather than tied into a bundle with ribbon. This style of box is considered an outstanding way of ageing cigars in the medium and long term.
Only 1,500 numbered boxes have been produced which will be made available exclusively to the UK market
The name Por Larrañaga, which means “By Larrañaga”, was first registered in Havana by Ignacio Larrañaga in 1834. This was just 24 years after the very first cigar brands were registered, and makes Por Larrañaga the oldest brand of handmade Habanos still in production.
Although Por Larrañaga is classified light to medium bodied, and is relatively subtle and easy going, it has a reputation for outstanding ageing potential. Previous UK Regional Editions from the brand, most notably the 2007 Magnifico, have born this out and have become extremely collectable.

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.

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.
