The definitive book on Cuban cigars of the modern era, El Habano Moderno is a comprehensive, beautifully illustrated collector’s guide to contemporary Cuban cigars presented in two parts. The first part gives a brief overview of the history and production of the Cuban cigar, along with detailed analysis of the various features and methods that can be used to date and authenticate Cuban cigars of any time period, while the second part provides thorough profiles of each and every release of Cuban cigars produced in the modern era, beginning in the early 2000s, illustrated with high-quality photographic illustrations (most of which were created especially for this work). El Habano Moderno is authored by renowned Cuban cigar specialist Alexander Groom, the man behind the essential reference site Cuban Cigar Website.
The Retail Edition is casebound in a rich oxblood red, with vibrant cover ornamentation styled after a cigar band and embossed with gold foil details. At more than 700 pages in length, this hefty second edition has been updated to include the 2023 Cuban releases.
