This is a very unique cigar that’s rich from start-to-finish, I felt like I was in Qatar chilling with Pulisic after the US win against Iran. It was so delightful that it made my feet move and took me away. The word Etëfal means celebration in Arabic, Plasencia created this limited release for sports fans and cigar connoisseurs around the world.
Nestor Andres Plasencia said, “With this special blend, the Plasencia family wants to celebrate that we can meet again. Just as the roots of tobacco come together and become stronger, we too are stronger together. We wish to celebrate this momentous occasion taking place in Qatar with the Plasencia Ehtëfal.”
The Plasencia Ehtëfal is made of the very best tobacco from the Plasencia family farms in Honduras and Nicaragua while wrapped in beautifully aged organically grown tobacco.

Amongst all the colour and blast of New Year, the gentle and quiet Rabbit may at first go unnoticed. For the likeable Rabbit displays both charm and caution. After a while, you will become aware of the Rabbit's more dynamic virtues – speed of thought and action, a quick intelligence.
These are going to fly off the shelves, come pick up your’s today at Havana Phil’s Cigar Company!
Upon opening the box, aficionados will first see an inner wood panel in line with the box’s design. It not only protects the cigars, but also enhances the excitement of unboxing the Limited Edition for the first time. Underneath the panel, the inside of the wooden box is reminiscent of a rabbit warren with interlinked sections for the ten perfecto cigars.
The blend of the Limited Edition consists of well-aged filler tobaccos with an average maturity of 4,5 years. This highly anticipated Year of the Rabbit Limited Edition will please loyal aficionados and collectors around the world.
1/3 – A bit shy in the beginning, this well-crafted perfecto develops and delights with pronounced pepper notes, soon to be counterbalanced by flavours of roasted nuts and cream.
2/3 – The constantly changing taste impressions show how complex this cigar is. Leathery notes start to form in the second third, together with hints of coffee and dried fruit.
3/3 – The intensity slightly increases in the last third but never overwhelms the palate. An additional cacao sweetness, joined by cedar wood and fresh spice concludes this masterpiece.
We will be hosting Javi Carranza Global Sales director of Plasencia & Wayne Clark, South Eastern Sales Manager.

Philip Smokescreens- It was a busy morning, my legs are like linguinis. I went for one of our economical smokes, that’s how the experience started. Sometimes you just want to smoke a dependable, unique cigar and chill for a moment.
The Rocky Lounge at Havana Phil’s provides an oasis for people passing through, I relaxed on the sofa that always brings back memories of where we’ve been, those memories of the old store and my father are evident here. The photos that line the walls in our Rocky Lounge take me back to great events, visits, trips and, of course, NC State.
This room is a homage to the Rocky Patel, regular fellas everywhere and the original guests from our first store on North Battleground. Smoking the Bolivar Confradia by Lost and Found was just what the doctor ordered after a busy morning. The sofa and NC State pillows are just what my back wanted. The Davidoff Lounge offers more and is a showcase of where we’re going, but the Rocky Lounge will always be here and in our hearts.
The cigar did a great job in providing a smooth, yet full-body smoke in this maduro oscuro toro—which was aged 5-8 years and is available in a robusto size and another blend as well. One-time limited edition and economy don’t usually go together, but we’re dealing with a Caldwell collaboration. Robert Caldwell (Caldwell Cigars) and Justin Andrews (Scandinavian Tobacco) really put thought into this blend, combining quality USA Connecticut Broadleaf, Ecuadorian Sumatra and Dominican Habano leaves. What makes this limited cigar release so unique is that it was the result of a curated search of premium cigar factories for limited, aged and rare tobaccos that never sold. I don’t usually get into the flavor aspects of my smokes, but I can taste the dark chocolate with this stick.
Wrapper: USA Connecticut Broadleaf
Binder: Ecuadorian Sumatra
Filler: Dominican Habano
Sizes: Toro (6x54) and Robusto (5x54)
Strength: Full-Bodied

Another EPIC smoke brought to us by Montecristo, this special edition cigar is hot now with our customers and is a smooth, medium-bodied cigar that’s enjoyable from start-to-finish.
