Summer 2010

We visited Holland and Marrakesh for you, reporting about the special features that away the cigar connoisseur at the two destinations. Humidor expert Mark André tells about the pests that can endanger the passionados’ stocks, and on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the death of Mark Twain we look at one of the most prominent cigar lovers in history. When selecting the cigars for the tasting in the Summer issue, we relied this time entirely on recommendations by top retailers from around the world.

If you missed this edition, you can order a back-issue.
