El Presidente Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Register up. we might have a FOH Zoom interactive depending on the event lineup. For the first time, the Festival del Habano, which the current health situation has made impossible to organize in Havana, will be celebrated with a multimedia format through a dedicated platform, which will give all fans the opportunity to participate in a virtual and interactive experience: the Habanos World Days. Habanos S.A. has created a portal where it will be possible to attend a rich program dedicated to the world of Habanos from 4 to 6 May.

I should pick Lancero or other pricey Cohibas instead LOL 🤣. 1 1

That would be interesting if they're going to send some samples of BHK58 to us, since I'll be the only person who actually tested BHK58 as an average CC aficionado in Korea. 1
Tdm_86 Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 Registered, curious to see what all this will entail. I highly doubt that they'll mail out cigars though 😄

Puros Y Vino Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 Just now, Ryan said: I hope they don't mail out the dinners. Maybe flying them out and exposing them to freezing temps and higher UV exposure would make them less lethal and add some flavour? 2 1
Ryan Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 Set up a place setting with 9 glasses of different shapes. Leave all of them empty for the duration of the meal. First course, cold soup of a mystery vegetable and no seasoning. Main course, the cheapest cut of meat you can find (source animal doesn't matter) raw on one half, grey on the other, separated by a generous strip of sinew, with a side of a tiny yellow tomato (leave stalk on for garnish). Dessert, chocolate mousse mixed with cigar ash and raspberry coulis (important: use battery acid as a base for the coulis). During the meal send someone out with some money to bring you back two warm beers. (repeat 4 - 8 times). At the end of the meal, leave an expensive bottle of rum in the middle of the table and watch somebody steal it. At 2 am go to a late night place and order a pizza. "It's just like being there!" 1 1
Puros Y Vino Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 ^^ That ladies and gentleman is the Habanos Fest experience for much dinero. The cigars they hand out are the only edible items presented throughout the whole event.
