Celebrating with Illusione Epernay

Saludos,

Greetings, knights of Epernay and Notre Dame. It's a celebration with an Illusione Epernay "on top of" Le Monde cigar. That is how we're feeling this morning after our Irish of Notre Dame secured a championship bid with a win over USC last night.

The Illusione Epernay line is typically the blend that wins brand owner Dion Giolito a Top 25 spot from Cigar Aficionado every year. This is a creamy and cedary blend. Very Cubanesque (along the lines of a Cuban Trinidad). We are the only Illusione cigar merchant in St. Tammany Parish so come in to Habana Port today and try this classic.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Saludos,

Greetings, tasters of turkey & torpedoes. We at Habana Port Cigar Merchants would like to wish you a happy and blessed Thanksgiving. We hope you will dine today on some scrumptious food with friends and family. Don't forget your post-Thanksgiving cigar or pipe tobacco. It will aid in your digestion (or indigestion more likely).

As a reminder, we are closed today but will reopen tomorrow at 10 am. Until then, take care!

Padilla by Studio Tobac Cigar

Saludos,

Greetings patrons of Padilla. We are smoking the Padilla by Studio Tobac cigar right now. These have some nice age to them (at least 10 months) and are smooth. This is a cigar that was the first collaboration between Ernesto Padilla and Oliva's Studio Tobac division. The flavor is very balanced. There is a little bit of everything. Right spice, some coffee, some earth but all very clean. We only have a few 10-count boxes left from this one-time run so this cigar is definitely a buy-and-hold.

Brickhouse Maduro Cigar

Saludos,

Greetings, brothers of Brickhouse. Our JC Newman rep visited us today and gave us samples of the new Brickhouse Maduro. Right now there will only be one vitola offered in this new line: the Mighty Mighty which is a 6.25x60 cigar. Lovers of Maduros and large ring gauges will enjoy this blend. We found the profile to have sweet, toasty notes with molasses layers. We enjoyed this cigar. We should receive the Brickhouse Maduro later this month. Stay tuned to our Twitter feed as to its arrival.

Habana Port Votes 2012!

Saludos, 

Greetings voters of Viajes and vice. Tomorrow is Election Day in America. Whether you're on the right, on the left, Republican, Democrat or Independent, all of us at Habana Port can agree on one issue...we love our fine tobacco. In some jurisdictions it is illegal to sell booze on Election Day. Thankfully this prohibition does not apply to cigars or pipe tobacco. So in the spirit of Election Day, we are conducting a poll of our own: from now until tomorrow night, come in and vote for your favorite Tabacum cigar (our own cigar brand) whether it is Maduro or Natural. Wednesday morning when the final tally is done, we will tweet who the winner is.

As a further incentive, we will offer an extra 5% off singles and 12.5% off bundles of 20 today and tomorrow only.  So get out there and vote and after you visit the polls, visit our humidor and select your favorite cigar candidate. Here are their platforms:

Tabacum Maduro stands for sweet, toasty notes with layers of molasses and vanilla.
Tabacum Natural stands for earthier, cedary flavors with a drier component.

To read more information on the Tabacum line of cigars, click here and get the full story so you can be a more-informed voter, er, smoker. Either way you vote, both candidates can do you no wrong.

Friday Night Light

Saludos,

Greetings, avid A. Fuente smokers. As we unwind from another busy Friday of cigar sales, we choose our pre-weekend night cigar. So we picked an aged A. Fuente Don Carlos Robusto cigar from the humidor. It starts out with a faint white peppery note and smooths out to light leather and earth flavors. We certainly recommend this high quality line from the Kings of the D.R.
