Some Cuban Cigar Poetry/Prose.


Recommended Posts

One of my favourite cigar books is the English version of "The Story of havana Cigars" by Gaspar J. Garcia Gallo & Wilfredo Correa Garcia. The first Spanish Language edition was printed in 1959 "Biographia del Tobacco Habano" The first English language Edition was printed in 2001.

The book loses a litttle in its English translation but still retains a richness in its writing that I adore. I have copied here two poems from the book that I hope you enjoy. The first is in relation to cuban Tobacco and the second, homage to the Cuban cigar roller.

Nothing like a bit of Nepenthes every day :rotfl:

P.S Also a good name for a new line of cigars (maybe a rebadged PARTAGAS SERIE CONNOISSEUR No.1 PARTAGAS SERIE CONNOISSEUR No.2 PARTAGAS SERIE CONNOISSEUR No.3 )

Hey whatever it takes :P

Cheers Oz :)
