Exclusive VIP Cigar-Tasting Event Hosted by Regency Cigar Emporium

This exclusive event celebrated the Davidoff Oro Blanco, the crown jewel of cigars.

 Tuesday April 13 2022 saw Regency Cigar Emporium LLC hosting the ultimate cigar-tasting event, an exclusive evening for just 30 VIP guests. This prestigious event featured the crown jewel of cigars, the Davidoff Oro Blanco.

Owner of Regency Cigar Emporium, Michael Correia and Davidoff Americas President, Dylan Austin, jointly hosted a unique evening. Its staggering price tag of $500 makes the Oro Blanco one of the world’s most expensive cigar. The VIP guests enjoyed a special evening that few aficionados will ever experience; even with an entry fee of $500, the event sold out well ahead of the date. 

$500 may seem like a lot of money for a single cigar but true connoisseurs clearly consider it worth every cent for a truly unique experience. Davidoff Oro Blanco cigars enjoy a reputation as being among the most exclusive and expensive in the world; each cigar is hand rolled by highly skilled and experienced rollers, working under the supervision of Davidoff’s master blender. The tobacco used in the Oro Blanco is extremely rare, harvested in 2000 and 2001 from the richest soil of the Dominican Republic, at the confluence of the Mao, Gurabo and Yaque Del Norte rivers. After the cigars are rolled, they are aged for an additional year, and then reviewed by the master blender. The Oro Blanco is offered in a luxurious wooden box of 10 cigars, or in a single cigar ‘coffin’. 

“No thrills or frills, this night was all about the cigar,” says Regency Cigar Emporium owner Michael Correia. “It takes a bit of courage to spend $500 on a cigar and 33 guests did and everyone of them said it was definitely worth it. Our guests had an experience that they will never forget.” This was the second time that Regency Cigar had a public event featuring the rare Davidoff Oro Blanco. Dylan Austin said "As far as we know nothing like this has ever been done anywhere in the world. Eddie Guerra called the event "The Slaughter of the Unicorns" A total of 38 Oro Blancos were smoke that night at Regency Cigar Emporium.
