The Complete Guide for Habanos' Enthusiasts

The Complete Guide for Habanos' Enthusiasts
Habanos s.a - April 2003

A publication released April 2003 as a joint venture between Habanos s.a and Hunters & Frankau UK. It is still currently available.

The publication comprises a stiff cardboard folder containing loose-leaf pages. It comes complete with a 57 page booklet "Cultivating a Tradition of Perfection", a cardboard ring gauge, and a poster entitled "The Guide to Habanos Sizes".

There is one loose-leaf page for each of the (then) current 33 brands, showing full size colour images of each cigar with their bands. The pages are 165mm x 240mm which fold out to a width necessary to accommodate the full range of cigars in each brand. Within each brand, the cigars are grouped into handmade long-filler, handmade short-filler, and machine made.

This publication is a great snap-shot of the current status of the Habanos range at the start of 2003. It does not included any of the Special Releases.

Since publication, all of the machine-made cigars have either been discontinued or are now handmade; and the six fully machine-made brands have been discontinued.

Highly Recommended.
