Damn! I've been invited for a 1-1 meeting with THE Alejandro Robaina tonight, 6pm at the Westin Hotel, KL. He's in town for a MEGA charity dinner this weekend.

I think i'm going to crap in my pants, i'm so excited.

Ask him the direction he see Coban cigars going in the next couple of years. Also ask him if he thinks regular production of Maduros might be in store for the future, or if it will remain Limitada. Thanks.

WOW, HOLY MOMMA!!!!

Fantastic!!!

PLEASE be sure to post some pics.

Oh yeah, can you ask him if they'll ever come out with a Mareva or a Minuto?

CRAP I think it's already past 6:00 pm on that side of the world right now

Ask him what he thinks will happen when the embargo is finally lifted--impact on price, quality, etc.

Also ask him if he had the ability to blend tobaccos from anywhere else with his Cuban tobacco, what is the first cigar he woulc construct?

Very nice!!!! Thank you for sharing.... What a great opportunity!!

Interesting about the Famosos being made out of tobacco other than his - that's one of my favorites!!!

Great story. Wonderful pictures. Another valuable addition to your blog and further testament to your reporting skills. Any possibility that you might have another opportunity to meet with Don Alejandro before he returns to Cuba?

Got to get some of those ELs

What an honor!
The first real cigar I smoked was a VR Don Alejandro.
Congrats!

No, i think i won't have a chance to meet again before he leaves.

The ELs i mentioned are at the Hencho en Cuba shop at the Westin Hotel -- they've got quite an impressive collection there, pricey though.
