The evening brought together more than 180 guests, who enjoyed a dinner specially designed for the occasion in a festive atmosphere full of tradition.
This exclusive edition celebrates the Year of the Snake (Wood).

Partagás “Cedros” (50 ring gauge x 135 mm length) is a limited specialty that stands out for its neat presentation in an elegant box containing 18 Habanos.

Each of these Habanos has been made “Totally Handmade with Long Filler” using selected wrapper, filler and binder leaves coming from the Vuelta Abajo* plantations, in Pinar del Río*, Cuba*. This region is recognized worldwide as the cradle of what is considered the world’s best tobacco, thanks to its exceptional soils, unique climate and centuries-old tobacco growing tradition.
