This week on Habanos Cigars, Dinner & Drinks Show Ep 808 — it’s a triple hit of smoke, scandal, and heritage.
🔥 First, we dive into the flood of New World cigars now hitting the global market. With so many brands popping up from Nicaragua to the Dominican Republic, how do you know what’s worth smoking — and what to avoid? We break down the best and worst, and how to confidently choose your next cigar like a seasoned aficionado.
⚖️ Then, it’s the Cohiba controversy. U.S. courts are heating up as General Cigar, which makes the non-Cuban Cohiba in America, loses a major legal battle to Cuba’s state-run Cubatabaco. Judge Brinkema’s recent ruling may finally tip the scales in a decades-long war over the Cohiba name. We unpack the history, the 1997 lawsuit, and what this decision means for cigars on both sides of the embargo.
🏛️ And finally — we journey back to La Real Fábrica de Tabacos Partagás, Havana’s legendary cigar factory museum. Across from Havana’s Capitolio, this was one of the oldest and most iconic cigar factories in Cuba. From its colonial roots to its Habanos legacy, we bring you the rich story behind the name that helped shape the Cuban cigar world.
🎙️ So light up, pour a drink, and join us for a show that’s equal parts smoke, story, and scandal.
Not your grandfather’s cigar show — but he'd probably still love it.
