La Casa del Habano Edmonton

On September 24, 2025, La Casa del Habano Edmonton, in Canada, officially opened its doors. The event brought together around 70 Habano enthusiasts. Among the distinguished guests were Mr. Rod Frank, Mayor of Strathcona County, Alberta, as well as Roger Lanteigne and Francisco Rojas, Commercial manager and development director of Havana House Cigars and Tobacco Merchants representatives from Havana House Cigars and Tobacco Merchants Ltd., the exclusive distributor of Habanos in the Canadian market, and Mrs. Angela Giannoulis, vice president of Primero Cigar Imports, the sub-distributor for the West Coast. This new franchise has been operating since August 2025, bringing great pride to its owners.

Bolívar New Gold Medal (ring gauge 48 x 165 mm length) was the highlight of the night, presented by Mr. Francisco Rojas, Habanos Master of Academy. This vitola represents an exclusive product for La Casa del Habano network, made “Totalmente a Mano con Tripa Larga” (Totally handmade with Long Filler), with wrapper, binder, and filler leaves from the prestigious Vuelta Abajo*, in Pinar del Río, Cuba.

The hosts created a wonderful atmosphere for the evening, complete with live music, Cuban rum cocktails, and a variety of culinary offerings —including a sophisticated cake featuring the La Casa del Habano logo, enjoyed by all attendees.

La Casa del Habano Edmonton joins another franchise already established in Windsor, Ontario—continuing the expansion across Canada. It offers not only the finest cigars in the world – Habano – but also a refined, specialized service where Cuban culture, tradition, and exclusivity come together – the core pillars of the La Casa del Habano experience.
