Summary: What a wealth of information,appreciated only by a devotee!
Review: This book is a powerhouse of information. From the technical aspect of fermatation,ageing,curing and even the various leaf sizes and their roles in the cigars,blew me away! A MUST have in the collection of true "habanophiles" such as myself. The reference portion of the book is truly a collection of different vitolas,their own taste,brand names ,and taster's note is a great point of information. I highly recommend this book to everyone who enjoys a great habano,and can appreciate ,not only the task it took to make this book,but more importantly ,the task it takes to make a truly great cigar!!!!

Summary: Best havana reference available in the US
Review: This is a great reference book for specific havana brands. Life sized images of most cigars from nearly all brands is included along with vitola information and author's tasting notes/suggestions. This is in addition to general cigar information like history of tobacco, tobacco cultivation and creating a cigar. The specific details are a bit dated (1997) but still the best I have seen published in the US. However, Min Ron Nee's text is superior if you can obtain it.

Summary: Unquestionably the finest book available on Cuban cigars
Review: With the plethora of books currently available on cigars in general and on Habanos in particular, this is (still) the one item no cigar aficionado dare be without.
