Splendid: Ramon Allone's Regional Edition in honour of Heinrich Villiger<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A special highlight was the 5TH<\/sup>Avenue presented its guests with the premiere of the Ramon Allones Sr Henry of the Edici\u00f3n Regional Alemania. The abbreviation \u201eSr.\u201c stands for \u201eSe\u00f1or\u201c and \u201eHenry\u201c refers to the name \u201eHeinrich\u201c. \u201eSr. Henry\u201c is therefore the most respectful form of address for Heinrich Villiger, who celebrated his 90th birthday in 2020. The cigar has a length of 150 mm and a ring gauge of 54. The number 90 can also be seen on the second cigar ring, which is in silver and burgundy red and characterises the cigars of all \u201eEdici\u00f3nes Regionales\u201c. Heinrich Villiger is the founder and managing director of 5TH<\/sup>Avenue and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Villiger S\u00f6hne AG is well known and highly honoured in Cuba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
