2011 Cuban Cigars Regional Releases
If you don’t live in the US, it is highly possible that your local cigar shop will soon receive (if it hasn’t already) some shiny Cuban cigars with red bands. These are regional releases, exponentially produced by Habanos SA year after year. First, these releases were done for mature markets like Spain or the UK, but since 2-3 years even smaller countries like Bulgaria or Israel get their own double-banded babies.
