In this special episode of Habano del Podcasto, we take you behind the leaf to explore the philosophy, discipline, and deep artistry that go into crafting a world-class cigar.Filmed once again at the Vintage Cigar Lounge, we light up the Davidoff Yamasa Robusto—a bold, complex cigar that became the perfect companion for a conversation rooted in quality, legacy, and intention.

Much of what we discuss in this episode was inspired by the stunning documentary From Seed to Smoke: A Cigar’s Odyssey, which offers an intimate look into Davidoff’s meticulous cigar-making process in the Dominican Republic.

From seed selection to fermentation, rolling, and aging, the film beautifully captures the love and labor behind every stick.
