A unique experience for aficionados in Doha

A first of its kind, Casa del Habano pop-up shop, opened its doors to aficionados and aficionadas in Doha (Qatar) in occasion of the closing event for the year of the 55th anniversary of Trindad.

For this final celebration Phoenicia Cyprus LTD, one of the world’s most distinguished distributors of premium Cuban cigars, joined forces with Qatar Duty Free, creating a new concept shop for “La Casa del Habano” at the Doha International Airport. The “pop-up” concept, a 40sq m Casa del Habano, was the first temporary installation in Habanoshistory: located in the North Node area of the airport, this unique activation offered travellers a superb selection of vintage Habanos that went from Limited Editions, Regional Editions, Habanos Collection books and a wide selection of Habanos Humidors, including the commemorative Trinidad 50 Aniversario.  

Moreover, the main cigar shop in the Duty Free at the terminal A also got a wide assortment of cigars from Habanosregular portfolio offering attendees traveling to and from Doha the chance to indulge in some wonderful #HabanosMoments.

The collaboration between Qatar Duty Free, Phoenicia, and Habanos S.A. positions Doha and Hamad International Airport as a premier destination for cigar enthusiasts, particularly from the GCC region.

“This partnership is all about blending the rich heritage of Cuban cigars with the world-class hospitality that Qatar Duty Free is known for. Together with Phoenicia Ltd. and HabanosS.A., we’re creating an experience that celebrates tradition while elevating what travellers can expect at Hamad International Airport,” said Mr. Thabet Musleh, Chief Retail and Hospitality Officer at Qatar Airways Group.
