La Casa del Habano, Miramar
La Casa del Habano, Miramar Many consider this store (called Fifth Avenue by the majority) as the best in Cuba, and this beautiful store in the picturesque Miramar neighborhood of Havana simply does not disappoint. Welcome to Carlos Robaina, who has been a part of the store for eight years, and who could tell the story of coming here as a young man with his father, the great Alejandro Robaina, ...
La Casa del Habano – Old Havana
La Casa del Habano – Old Havana Old Havana is a beautiful place to explore. A walk through these narrow and ancient streets is a pleasure, one that could lead to the Cuban reference bar La Bodeguita del Medio for a mojito. While the bar sells cigars, the purchase would not be a mistake, for a few blocks away there is a lovely and magnificent tobacconist. The Hotel Conde de Villanueva...
La Vega at Palacio de las Artesanias
La Vega at Palacio de las Artesanias You can be forgiven for assuming that the Palacio de las Artesanías group of stores is a tourist trap. But it would be a shame to miss a very good cigar store that is about to become better. The store tends to attract a crowd of tourists, rather than serious fans, but they move past the goodies near the entrance and make their way to the humidifier as we di...
La Casa del Habano - Vedado
La Casa del Habano - Vedado Few cigar lovers boast that they have visited the Casa del Habano at the National Hotel, but this great store is definitely worth a visit. We have found that it has large stocks of cigarettes and a source of some of them that you may not find elsewhere. El Nacional itself is a majestic hotel, standing on top of a cliff overlooking the boardwalk like a castle of yeste...
La Casa del Habano, Partagas
La Casa del Habano, Partagas The original Partagás cigar factory is a shadow of what it was, a milestone that crumbles with splinters, paint flakes, a former beauty queen devastated by age. The building that remains the same image of the Cuban cigar industry for many is now empty, and the cigars are no longer crooked here, but the cigar store at its base remains so. The store, perhaps...
La Casa del Habano – Avenida Paseo
La Casa del Habano – Avenida Paseo The Melia Cohiba cigar store is a good place to buy cigarettes and a great place to smoke them. The store is greatly improved in its early days, and has a small but good selection of cigars. There always seems to be some Bolivar, Cohiba and a lot of Montecristo available for single sale within the small triangular humidor cabin. The Meliá Cohiba is...
La Casa del Habano, Varadero
La Casa del Habano, Varadero It is not recommended to stay in the large, but seriously obsolete Hotel Habana Libre, but it would be a mistake to miss a stop at your Casa del Habano. It is the largest cigar store in Cuba that has consistently been full of cigarettes in all our visits since it opened in February 2010, and when a certain cigar cannot be found in one of the other stores it is very ...
La Casa del Habano – Melia, Habana
