 Each year in late February, smokers of premium cigars party in the Cuban capital to celebrate the Cigar Festival, an event already among the most important of its type in the world. The 2009 celebration, from
February 23 to 27, is the 11th edition and, as always, some surprises are reserved until the last moment.
This is the Cigar Party par excellence because Habanos are considered the best handmade cigars in the world for their triple conditions of soil, climate and cigar makers' experience.
A Great Party
 The fete's initiative was in 1994, during the H. Upmann brand's 150th anniversary celebration; a two-day party that was extremely well received. That party was held at Las Ruinas restaurant and the dinner was prepared by famous Cuban chef Gilberto Smith Duquesne.
