Blakes Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I've just been watching the documentary - The Havana for the second time when I noticed something interesting. I'm not sure when this was filmed but I'm guessing mid 1990's... anyone know for sure? Anyway, when talking about Cohiba and El Laguito there is a shot at the 43.50 minute mark of a glass cabinet with bands and Cohiba box stickers/labels. I noticed they have the Behike ones there?? I was under the impression that the Behike was first introduced in 2006 as a special release and then in 2010 in current production. There's no mention that I can find of any earlier Behikes on Trevor's website. What am I missing? can anyone shed any light on this?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philski Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 That's interesting. I don't know the answer, but the only guess I can make is that it was a proposed line or Cohiba offshoot that didn't take off at the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallclub Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 And at 46:15, the lady worker wraps Cohiba CEs in cellophane… I wonder if the doc uses extracts from older movies… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisco Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 And at 46:15, the lady worker wraps Cohiba CEs in cellophane… I wonder if the doc uses extracts from older movies… I assumed they were Cohiba Cornas, as they were discontinued in 1992. I put the documentary at about 1990. I thought it was interesting to hear the Spanish actor's comments on American "oblivious" smoking vs European smoking and British "dry" vs Spanish "wet" cigars. Also, it was interesting to watch the Monte A being rolled...And, Salinger's own account of the JFK cigar purchase, before the embargo, was interesting.

Drexl2000 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 They also mention, that Davidoff recently moved production to DR, which he did around 91-92. So I guess the documentary is filmed around 92-93. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 According to the Janson Media site, the video was released in 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC4 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Enjoyed the video, thanks. Another thing I noticed is that most people smoking cigars smaller than a 48 RG, mostly Churchill or double cornoas. Nobody was smoking any "fat" cigars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisco Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1039820/ 1992 it is, seemed a bit older. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
