The Art of the Habano
"An immersive Cuban cigar experience at Habanos Atelier & La Casa Del Habano Philipsburg."
Discover one of St. Maarten’s most authentic and unforgettable experiences with the Cigar Rolling Experience at Habanos Atelier, located in the heart of Philipsburg. This unique, hands-on journey begins with the fascinating story of a Cuban cigar, from seed to finished masterpiece. Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed with your choice of a freshly prepared cocktail, premium Cuban rum, or coffee before discovering the rich history and craftsmanship behind every Habano. Guided by a Master Cigar Roller from one of Cuba’s most prestigious cigar factories, you’ll learn the traditional art of cigar making as you roll your own long-filler cigars using five different varieties of Cuban tobacco leaves. After the rolling session, relax with complimentary appetizers before continuing to La Casa Del Habano Philipsburg, where you’ll tour the elegant lounge and impressive walk-in humidor while learning how to properly cut, light, taste, and pair a premium Habano. La Casa Del Habano Philipsburg is an official Habanos franchise, offering more than 400 authentic premium Cuban cigars at duty-free prices in one of the Caribbean’s finest cigar destinations. Enjoy our two-level lounge, premium bar, outdoor terrace, and expert service in a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re a seasoned aficionado or discovering cigars for the first time, we invite you to experience the true world of Habanos. Open daily from 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM.
