      More cigar pairings! You can introduce us to Davidoff cigar models and what can we consume with them and show us that. But also I could watch anything you film because I love to listen Eddie. Like a role model, his behavior inspires me to improve my manners as well and I admit to say that I'm secretly crazy fan! 😇🙌👑

      Following the Kelner and Eladio Diaz's departure, what does it mean for Davidoff in the future? Particularly in terms of new products and quality assurance. Many thanks

      Thanks for a thorough summary of your recent Cuban Habanos Festival. I am a 36 year pipe smoker but enjoy a cigar about once a month, especially with espresso after lunch. Any thoughts on coffee pairings? Also I vacationed in the Dominican Republic for a decade and their cigars continue to impress, so maybe more reviews of your excellent Davidoff Dominican made cigars would be much appreciated. Kindest regards to you and your father. Cheers from Milano 🇮🇹 SF.

    An absolutely terrific posting. Extremely informative. I was last in Cuba in 2018 and share your thoughts about the Island and the wonderful Cuban people. It’s time for the U.S. to end the embargo and allow the Cuban people to enjoy all the world has to offer. I will be in London next year and look forward to visiting the greatest cigar retailer in the world and hopefully meet you and your father.

    • @silvermediastudio
      @silvermediastudio Рік тому

      The US Embargo doesn't prevent Cuba from trading with the rest of the world. Look to their "leadership," not the USA, for what has been holding Cuba back since the 1950s. Look at the opulence and excess enjoyed by the Cuban Dictators and their cronies for all the evidence you need. Further, it is cute when westerners say they have "been to Cuba." You've been to Havana. You haven't been around the island, to the 99% who eek out meager existence, and are kept oppressed generation after generation under the boot of communism.

    Mr. Sahakian, it was a pleasure meeting and speaking to you and your father last Saturday. Thank you so much for taking the time for a chat and take a photo. The two Romeo y Julieta Churchills and the two boxes I received made it back to Mississippi in tact.
    It was a pleasure listening to you walk a new cigar smoker through his first purchase and even cutting his cigar to show him how. The shop is great from staff to product. Wishing you all the best in the future and long ashes.

    Sir, I have been waiting for your Cuba report like a child awaiting Santa Claus. As one of the 80% (total tourist numbers) from Canada I would offer up that the name for the L.G.C. cigar LOS TURQUINOS is a play on words as El Turquino is the highest mountain peak in Cuba. Perhaps like some viewers, I have put a visit to Davidoff of London on my bucket list. Thank you for your time.
