Habanos Festival im Februar 2009 in Havanna / Kuba


Folgend das Programm für das "XI. Festival Habanos " in Havanna 2009. Habanos SA lädt wieder ein und es wird sicher wieder eine großartige Veranstaltung. Speziell die Feier des 10 jährigen kommerziellen Bestehens von "Trinidad" und die Gala bzw. das Vorstellen der neuen Produkte wäre unglaublich reizvoll. Allerdings steht sich der Preis einfach nicht dafür.. und wenn ich das sage heißt das was :-(

"Habanos S.A. Corporation and Tabacuba Business Group are honored to invite you to the 11th Habanos Festival, the most important event in the Habanos realm.
From 23rd to 27th of February La Habana, venue of the Festival will become the meeting place of the distributors, specialists and lovers of the best cigar in the world. It will be a unique setting for presenting the novelties to be incorporated to the Habanos portfolio in 2009, which guarantee the dynamism of our market.
Within the Habanos Festival, the Trade Fair and the International Seminar will provide a wide exchange of knowledge, experiences, products and ideas and create a unique atmosphere to fully enjoy the aroma, flavor and texture of the Habanos, the true stars of the Festival.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Havana where you will find pleasure in the tradition and future of the Habanos. "
