Synopsis

Its contents include, in the first place, a whole process of Habano making, starting with the cultivation of the tobacco plant in the prestigious region of Vuelta Abajo - World's best tobacco zone - to the "Totalmente a mano" '-Totally handmade- cigar rolling in Cuba's historical factories, elements that distinguish the Habano for its exclusiveness. The more than 500 manual processes undergone by the tobacco leaf until its transformation into a Habano are described in its pages. Also included in the book is a chapter on the 27 brands of Habanos currently in production, from the mythic Cohiba to the historical Montecristo, Romeo y Julieta and Partagás and other prestigious Habanos brands such as Trinidad, San Cristóbal de la Habana and H. Upmann. Other interesting and novelty chapters are also included in this essential material, like, for instance, on the ageing of tobacco leaves before a Habano is made and about the ageing of a Habano itself. The book could not omit chapters on the exclusive Habanos Festival celebrated every year in Cuba and information on the best sales points throughout the world, like the franchised stores La Casa del Habano and Habanos Specialists. All book copies bring a CD multimedia on the inside cover which gives the reader the possibility of consulting The World of Habano in digital format, and also provides a quick and easy searcher for the updated Complete Guide of Habanos present in the market..
