Cuba Day 5: A Golden Celebration - Bolivar Festival Night | Kirby Allison in Cuba

Video Description

Immerse yourself in the opulence of the Habanos Festival’s Bolivar Festival Night in this captivating fifth episode. As the wonders of the Festival del Habanos continue to unfold, I find myself deeper in the embrace of its unparalleled stature as the world's premier event for Cuban cigar connoisseurs. Tonight, we're swept into the grandeur of the long-awaited relaunch of the Bolívar Gold Medal. This event holds a special place in my heart, as Bolívar was the first brand I ever collected, and the Gold Medal, a personal favorite, makes the evening's excitement deeply personal. Witness the spectacle of Habanos' lavish celebration, a festivity that not only honors the grand relaunch but also encapsulates the glamor and prestige synonymous with their globally acclaimed cigars. Each party is a showcase, a stage where Cuba's rich cultural and artistic heritage is brought to life. Yet, it is the camaraderie that truly defines the festival. Year after year, it's a convivial gathering of friends, a shared passion for Cuban cigars drawing us together. Join me, as we celebrate not just the cigars, but the warm spirit and enduring traditions of this beautiful island. 🙏 Thank you to those who helped make this series possible: 🔸 Jemma Freeman and Hunters & Frankau 🔸 Daymi Difurniao and the entire Habanos marketing team 🔸 Peter Sarfard at The One and Only Cuba for Cuba logistics and travel services (https://www.instagram.com/theoneandonlycuba) 🔍 FOR MORE INFORMATION 🔸 Ajay Patel: @ajaylcdh - @no6cavendish 🔸 Alex Cigar Dandy: alex_cigar_dandy 🔸 Max Gutmann: https://bit.ly/max-gutmann-cigar-journal https://bit.ly/max-gutmann-cigar-aficionado 🔸 Nick Foulkes: @n_foulkes @nickfoulkessons5824 🙌 SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL 📽️ Join this channel to support our content with independent craftspeople and artisans: https://www.patreon.com/kirbyallison 🛒 Shop All Kirby Allison Products: https://www.kirbyallison.com #cubatravel #habanos #myhabanosmoment 🎬 VIDEO CHAPTER TIME CODES 0:00 Series Introduction 01:40 Arrival to Bolivar Festival Night 03:40 Ajay Patel, No.6 Cavendish 10:35 Cameo by Nick Foulkes 13:00 Alex Cigar Dandy 20:45 Max Gutmann 27:35 Nick Foulkes 31:25 Bolivar Gold Medal Tasting 📽 WATCH ALL THE VIDEOS IN OUR CUBA SERIES: 🧳 Packing My Luggage for Cuba: https://youtu.be/EYUo3FjPKTM 🧳 Packing My Cigars for Cuba: https://youtu.be/Kyikf14Pq74 1️⃣ My First Day in Cuba!: https://youtu.be/ip-0il1RlnM 2️⃣ Habanos Festival Opener & Welcome Night: https://youtu.be/GkV0Fd6D3RQ 3️⃣ Havana Sit Down Smoke with Edward and Eddie Sahakian: https://youtu.be/NMlth3zY_zs 4️⃣ The Glorious Tobacco Fields of Cuba: https://youtu.be/_xhcnfkfcL0 5️⃣ Bolivar Festival Night: https://youtu.be/beD-MDUE0XU 6️⃣ El Laguito Factory Tour: https://youtu.be/vebA6DZdLyg 7️⃣ Humidores Habana: https://youtu.be/FOHRs87LN1s 8️⃣ Havana Walking Tour with Edward and Eddie Sahakian https://youtu.be/prm2dd6u_mI 9️⃣ Hotel National Tour 🔟 Habanos Festival Black Tie Gala and Auction 🌟 MOST POPULAR VIDEOS ▶️ How To Cut A Cigar With Davidoff of London: https://youtu.be/DEhhk-0HZE4 ▶️ How To Smoke A Cigar At Davidoff London: https://youtu.be/xsuEd9xpCfM ▶️ Huntsman & Sons New York: https://youtu.be/6VmxRoInFAk ▶️ Double Bespoke Commission with John Kent & Terry Haste: https://youtu.be/-w5OBVL_oAU ▶️ Gentlemen's Day Out In London | Kirby Allison & Tom Chamberlin: https://youtu.be/NIwK7DuPzI8 ▶️ Inside The Original John Lobb London: https://youtu.be/pc_TsO2lfUk ▶️ From Suit to Shoot: A British Shooting Series: https://bit.ly/3CSJqf8 🧺 Dry cleaning provided by Rave Fabricare: https://bit.ly/3ery0FU 📍 FOLLOW US ON OUR OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA! 🔹 INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/kirbyallison 🔹 TIKTOK: www.tiktok.com/@kirbyallisonofficial 🔹 X: www.twitter.com/kirby_allison
