All-Star Lineup at De La Concha on Monday, November 23 and Tuesday, November 24

Posted by migrantblogger on November 21, 2009

What are you doing Monday afternoon? Stop by De La Concha to meet three of the top names in the cigar business: Pepin Garcia, Nestor Miranda and Eddie Ortega. An opportunity like this doesn’t arise every day. And, while you’re in the store, pick up a box of any of the cigars made by Pepin, Nestor or Eddie — not only will you get 15 percent off, you’ll get five chances to win a trip for two to visit the new Pepin Garcia cigar factory in Nicaragua (all expenses paid).

There will be other specials running throughout the day as well. Buy three or more cigars from each of these industry masters, and you’ll get 10 percent off and one chance to win the Nicaragua trip. Stop by De La Concha between 3 PM and 7 PM to see what other surprises are in store and meet the men behind the cigars you’ve grown to love.

Not enough for you?

A full house welcomed Avo at De la Concha earlier this month. The genius behind the Avo Campanero attended the cigar dinner to celebrate his brand, show his appreciation to the smokers who enjoy his work … and play a little music. More than 30 guests filled the store to enjoy a full meal catered by nearby restaurant Rue 57 and an open bar tended by a former Miss Tennessee (2006).

This was the first in-store event after the summer, kicking off what is likely to be a busy fall at De La Concha. With that in mind, let us know what types of event you’d like to attend of the rest of the year – we’re always looking for ideas.

De La Concha is pleased to welcome cigar great Jesus Fuego for this September 22nd HC event. This very special tasting will take place from noon until 7:00pm.

Jesus Fuego and Xikar have joined forces to create a very special cigar series that has already proven itself by many repeat sales and a 92 rating in Cigar Aficionado in the current issue. The HC Series comes in three blends and we are confident that one or more of them will meet the needs of the cigar smoking community.

The HC Connecticut Shade uses a Connecticut Shade-Ecuador wrapper, a Sumatra binder and filler from Costa Rica, Mexico and Nicaragua. This mild-medium smoke is slightly stronger than the average Connecticut Shade cigar, but stays true to a Connecticut’s character.
