Casa Havaneza is Lisbon’s oldest tobacconist and one of the most emblematic and old Cigars stores in the world, and it is said that it was created in 1864 but there are advertisements of the time that ensure that they have their doors open since 1855 In addition to Casa Havaneza do Chiado, we can now find a Casa Havaneza in the Amoreiras Shopping Center, one in the Colombo Shopping Center and one in the city of Porto.

The gala was attended by the Cuban Ambassador, Exma. Mrs. Mercedes Martínez, among other celebrities and friends of Casa Havaneza.

The purpose of the event was not only to honor Casa Havaneza, but mainly all those customers who, during these years, continue to make our house their favorite space to share with friends and enjoy Habanos as well as other luxury items.

The event took place in a magnificent scenario of harmonies between and Runs, Mojitos and high quality wines, in a unique set of aromas and flavors that were enjoyed by more than 100 people.
