During the evening, guests enjoyed a special selection of Ramón Allones No. 3, Gigantes and the new Absolutos vitola, made “Totally by hand with Long Filler” and presented in an elegant case containing 20 Habanos with the additional Limited Edition 2024 band. Each Habano is made with selected leaves from the prestigious Vuelta Abajo region, known for producing what is considered the best tobacco in the world.
