Cigar Travel

AS YOU may know, El Jeffe Laurence Davis has been on his travels and this time, he is venturing deep into new territories. He has ventured forth into both Honduras and Nicaragua for the first time, and it got us thinking about cigar travel; how many of you do it? Would you be interested in it? Is it something some of you plan to do at some stage?

In Praise of the RASS

AH, the RASS – spoken of reverentially and still one of the great ballads of the Cuban cigar songbook.

Shifting Tectonics

THE world cigar market continues to fascinate; now moving and changing as fast as it has done in generations. The great tectonic plates of Cuban cigar making and those from the rest of the major cigarmaking nations are shifting – and we can see new landmasses being formed right in front of our very eyes.

A World of Opportunity

IT’S easy to think that all is doom and gloom in the cigar world – and beyond, for that matter – but here at Sautter we think it’s of vital importance to view your glass as half-full as often as possible.
