We were two of 55 designated sampling evenings across the UK celebrating Trinidad 55 on the evening of Friday 21st June. We held our events at our James J Fox Flagship 19 St James's Street and La Casa Del Habano James J Fox in Harrods. We had three pairings: two at St James's and one at our LCDH. James J...

Trinidad, it would be fair to say, is a Habanos brand loved by most. If it is not their No.1 brand, it is highly likely to be in their “Top 3”. Consistency is the key for Trinidad; blends, vitolas, timing of releases, discontinuations, it has all added to the allure of one of Habanos’s most famed brands. Despite not having...

It was a pleasure to have made the pairing with Tesseron at our last sampling evening of 2023. Our Churchill’s Birthday Cigar and Cognac pairing event was the first time we paired Tesseron cognac with cigars for a sampling evening. A wonderful evening for more than 50 guests in our St James’s flagship, it was clear that the Romeo y...

Founded in 1905, Tesseron as a brand are very young, but it is their collection of eaux-de-vie dating back to their inception which makes them supremely unique. The family name of Tesseron came to prominence with their founder Maison Abel Tesseron. With two separate estate locations – one...

We are delighted to announce that our much-loved Churchill’s Birthday Cigar Evening will be taking place on Thursday, November 30th, at our St. James’s flagship shop, located at 19 St. James’s Street. This event has become a cherished tradition for us, as we come together to celebrate the enduring legacy of one of our shop’s most esteemed patrons, Sir Winston...
