JohnS Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Amicigar Kicks Off in Vietnam April 24, 2026 - Alexandre Avellar One of the most anticipated cigar gatherings of the year kicked off this Thursday in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. More than 100 cigar enthusiasts from different parts of the world gathered to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Amicigar. The event could not have started in a better way. In the year that the Habanos Festival was postponed and with the world going through a particular time, Ho Chi Minh City was set as an oasis for friends to reunite, celebrate friendship, and share a cigar together. The cigars started to burn, and the conversation started to flow early at the Cigar Trophy-winning lounge, named the best in Asia in 2025. The La Casa del Habano was the meeting point, as the guests came to register for the event and took the opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere at the four-story cigar shop, which is definitely one of the most impressive cigar lounges in the world.

JohnS Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Culture and a Riverboat Dinner Fill Amicigar Day Two April 25, 2026 - Alexandre Avellar The second day of the 20th anniversary of Amicigar started with some cultural experiences. As many guests were visiting the country for the first time, why not get to know a little bit of Vietnamese culture? Vietnam is also recognized because of its Taoist and Buddhist temples, so visiting one of those was the first activity of the day. It was an opportunity to learn a little bit more about the spiritual side of Vietnam. Then the guests were taken to Binh Quoi Restaurant. The restaurant has 8.6 hectares and offers a little touch of the feeling of the Vietnamese countryside with its green areas, cultural attractions, and food. The lunch was dedicated to thememories of the Amicigar friends that are no longer with us. The lunch ended with the traditional auction where some of the sponsors donated vintage cigars, spirits, wines, and cigar memorabilia. At this year’s auction, 10,170.00 USD were raised.
