…Well almost gone or should I say that we expect that all Auction Lots will indeed be knocked down and gone at our Cigar Auction Event on the 2^nd of July at the lovely Boisdale in Canary Wharf.

The event kicks off at 6pm with our annual AICS awards for the best of the cigar industry and we are looking forward to some splendid freshly rolled cigars from the Davidoff cigar roller and some French Mojitos from Remy Martin accompanied by some delicious canapés.

The auction of 330 Lots of aged, rare and mature cigars will be held in a private function room at 7pm sharp and as usual, will be conducted by our Director of Auctions Brian Ebbesen. Full details on our auction website including some great ‘Late Lots’ such as Dunhill Don Candido and Flor del Punto.

Following the auction, we will be enjoying Fuente cigars, Havana cigars, canapés and Remy Martin cognac in a private area on the cigar terrace. We hope to see around 100 avid cigar aficionado’s and connoisseurs and maybe a guest of honour from our exclusive UK importer Hunters & Frankau.

Our offices have been jammed this week with clients viewing auction Lots prior to bidding which is of course highly recommended and encouraged (simply email us to tell us when you would like to view [email protected]) we are also holding an open afternoon on Sunday from noon until we head for our auction pre-herf at the lovely Ten Manchester street Hotel cigar terrace at 6pm. (Again you need to be on the guest list to attend this evening herf of cigars, drinks and canapés)

If you are on the guest list, you are in for an evening to remember. On arrival ask for the C.Gars Ltd Team (David and James from C.Gars Ltd – Norfolk office) and they will sign you in and give you the auction paddle.

Best of luck to all of our auction bidders whether you are attending the event or bidding online. We will as usual post the preliminary results on my blog live as the auction happens (subject only to verification following the auction)

Earlier this week I enjoyed a delightful evening with clients at Le Pont de la Tour where the food and service was not only first class but we were also able to enjoy our Bolivar Britanicas in the smoking area outside. Warm balmy evening, excellent views and great company. Who could ask for more? 🙂

C.Gars Seleccion Inka Secret blend

I like to try and bring my clients cigars that they are unable to find anywhere else in the UK and I am delighted to introduce our own exclusive range of cigars from Peru.

From wrapper to filler these cigars are 100% Peruvian.

The blends were developed over many months of blind tastings until we felt we were confident to go to production with a first rate cigar in popular sizes at an attractive price.

Each cigar is banded with our distinct red or blue Inka Secret blend cigar bands and individually cello wrapped.

Quality control at the factory that we chose is excellent and these cigars are very well constructed with a cool easy draw and smooth medium brown vein free wrapper.

The pre light is tangy and sweet. The blend is bold, full bodied and full sweet flavoured from the first to the last puff with a delightful bouquet. Medium to full in strength with a good long satisfying finish on the palate.

Suitable for the experienced cigar smoker although also to be appreciated by the novice experimenting with flavour characteristics from different tobacco growing regions.

Available to order now at low introductory price with singles at pro rata price.
