Mexico’s Cigar King Max Gutmann's Rare & Regional Masterpieces | Part 2 | Kirby Allison

In Part 2 of our series with Mexico's Cigar King Max Gutmann, we sit down with Max in his private cigar lounge for an intimate exploration of cigar history. Max reveals the fascinating backstory behind the creation of two legendary Mexican regional cigars: the Edmundo Dantes 109 and the Conde 54. These iconic releases have earned a revered status among cigar aficionados and collectors worldwide, celebrated as two of the best regional releases ever made. And it was Max's Conde 54 Edmundo Dantes regional cigar that on New Year's Eve 2011 transformed a love for Cuban cigars into a passion for me! Max then invites us to dive deeper into his extraordinary humidor - easily one of the best in the world - sharing with us some of the rarest and most sought-after Habanos from his collection. Through these remarkable cigars, he vividly recounts stories from what many consider "the Golden Era of Cigars," highlighting some of the most iconic and collectable releases that defined this exceptional period. Join us as we uncover stories, traditions, and the enduring legacy of Cuban cigars, guided by Max Gutmann's unparalleled knowledge and genuine passion! 🎬 Watch Part 1 from this series:    • Mexico’s Cigar King Max Gutmann Humidor Re...   📽 Mexico City's Finest Hotel: The Hotel Presidente InterContinental | Penthouse and Wine Cellar Tour https://bit.ly/4dz8dFF 📽 The Legacy of Trinidad - Part 1 | The Origins of an Icon | Cuban Cigars | Kirby Allison https://bit.ly/4kW9adZ 📽 Cuba Day 6: Cohiba's El Laguito Factory Tour | A Legacy of Excellence | Kirby Allison in Cuba http://bit.ly/44UaqJK 🙌 SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL    / @kirbyallison   📽️ Join this channel to support our content with independent craftspeople and artisans:   / kirbyallison   🛒 Shop All Kirby Allison Products: https://www.kirbyallison.com #kirbyallison #cubancigars #habanos #kirbyallison 📽 Mentioned Videos Humidores Habana: Cuban Excellence | Humidors Made from 100+ Yr Old Reclaimed Wood | Havana, Cuba    • Humidores Habana: Cuban Excellence | Humid...   The Legacy of Trinidad - Part 1 | The Origins of an Icon | Cuban Cigars    • The Legacy of Trinidad - Part 1 | The Orig...   Welcome Evening - 2024 Festival del Habano    • Welcome Evening - 2024 Festival del Habano   Trinidad: Past, Present & Future | London Habanos World Days Trinidad Panel Presentation    • Trinidad: Past, Present & Future | London ...   🌟 MOST POPULAR VIDEOS ▶️ $400 Shoes vs $1300 Shoes - A Black Cap Toe Oxford Comparison:    • $400 Shoes vs $1300 Shoes | A Black Cap To...   ▶️ Gentlemen's Day Out In London | Kirby Allison & Tom Chamberlin:    • Gentlemen's Day Out In London | Kirby Alli...   ▶️ Inside The Original John Lobb London:    • Inside The Original John Lobb London With ...   ▶️ How To Cut A Cigar With Davidoff of London:    • How To Cut A Cigar With Davidoff of London...   ▶️ How To Smoke A Cigar At Davidoff London:    • How To Smoke A Cigar At Davidoff of London   ▶️ Huntsman & Sons New York:    • Huntsman & Sons In New York City Savile Ro...   ▶️ Double Bespoke Commission with John Kent & Terry Haste:    • Double Bespoke Commission with Two Bespoke...   ▶️ From Suit to Shoot: A British Shooting Series: https://bit.ly/3CSJqf8 🎬 Sit Down with Mexico’s Cigar King Max Gutmann | Part 2: Rare & Regional Masterpieces 00:00 – Introduction 00:27 – The Story of Edmundo Dantès Edición Regional México 10:58 – Aging & Quality of the Cigars 12:54 – The World of Regional Releases 15:11 – Max Gutmann’s Passion for Limited Editions 17:02 – The Cubatabaco 1492 Humidor 21:17 – The Habanos 1994 Humidor 26:11 – The Millennium Reserve Series 31:20 – Cigars as a Bond Between People 34:26 – The Story of the Cigar Jar & H.
