Popular Post Puros Y Vino Posted November 14, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 14, 2017 Just got back from Havana. Went with some old friends and made some new ones. A slushy Mojito with a Trinidad Vigia. My first ever Vigia. Loved it. The gang relaxing with a smoke at the Melia Cohiba (I think) Browsing the humidor at 5 y 16 The new Kempinski hotel in it's shining glory. Very shiny, but antiseptic. Like an Apple store. We had a smoke on the second floor lounge in the Kempinski. Prices were good, service was great, the ventilation was excellent but IMO, the decor was not fitting for a cigar lounge. Once again, too polished. I prefer smoking in the Partagas VIP lounge. Enjoying an early 1940's H Upmann Cristales with my espresso. A very good smoke that sadly is past it's prime. It had some interesting flavours throughout but had some bland points now and then. Glad I had the chance to smoke one though. My Havana haul (toaster and Nespresso machine not included) Two boxes of Trinidad Vigia Two boxes of Partagas E2 (5 counts) One box of Bolivar Liberatador Bundle of Monsdales (25 cigars) Four Alex PC and Robusto custom rolls. Two Robaina Lanceros and Four Laguito No 5's Four HdM Petit Robustos we split down there. Hotel Nacional ashtray, medium sized (2nd largest one) Ron Mulatta 7 Years Coffee. One Serrano and two Turquino One Cuba word champs hat. 19 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ebhead Posted November 15, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2017 Here are a few photos (a few posts at least) of this trip from another perspective. The quality of the images will vary between a phone and a proper camera, so apoligize in advance for that. as Bund stated this was a trip with old friends and new friends. I'm not much for commentary so I will just let the photos speak for themselves (I hope). 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ebhead Posted November 15, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2017 A few shots of the Kempinski (inside shots) and the new Cohiba Atmosphere (outside)...Like Bund said, a bit antiseptic and Euro. Unlike Bund though, I prefer the Nacional cigar lounge in the back. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ebhead Posted November 15, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2017 A bit more from the back of the Nocianal...Love this place. If I didn't have to cigar shop and eat I wouldn't move from there. Although you can't experience Havana without dragging along the Pharaoh: 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
