Mitchell Orchant is 42 years old and has been enjoying Havana cigars since he was 15 (!) Following a family tradition of smoking and collecting Havana cigars,way back from his Grandfathers day.

Mitchell is managing director of La Casa del Habanos in Hamburg,C.Gars Ltd the leading internet cigar merchant in the UK,Turmeaus Tobacconist-one of the oldest retail cigar shops in England ( since 1817) as well as Robert Graham Ltd in Scotland ( the oldest cigar shop in Scotland...since 1874)

His current favourite regular smokes are Partagas P2,Monte 2,Bolivar Belicosos and Montecristo Edmundo.His favourite vintage cigars are Davidoff Chateau series.

Mitchell's expertise is in vintage Havanas from pre Castro to present day limited editions.He particularly specializes in buying and selling Cuban Davidoff and Dunhill cigars and has helped many collectors world wide build up complete vertical collections.

Hunters and Frankau,the famous UK importer of Havana cigars awarded Mitchell the coveted "Silver Chaveta Award" in 2005 for outstanding contribution to the cigar trade.Mitchell has travelled to Cuba many times over the last decade and has a very good understanding of the cigar trade in general.

Married to Karyn, Mitchell lives in London and when not spending time herfing with friends concentrates on building his Ferrari collection as well as his Champagne collection.





Christopher Wolters, born 1965, is in fact the better looking of the two boys and smokes cigars since 1986. Married to Jeanette since 1998 the couple raises two children (and a French Picard Pointer called Benson Mam) and will soon move to a small village near Hamburg/ Germany. He as a very german German has absolutely no sense of humor he knows of - that is why he works in a profession that serious - a purveyor of fine smoke.

Christopher is the commercial director of La Casa del Habano Hamburg. He runs the international and local sales, - it helps he speaks a fairly understandable English, French and Cuban Spanish. Thanks to his long experience in the trade of Cuban cigars he knows his customers since many years. He considers most of them as friends and his advice on building up a cigar collection is highly appreciated - at least to some of them. He likes elegant cigars as he believes the cigar a man smokes expresses a lot about his personality. Thus he prefers light and fine cigars such as Quai d'Orsay Coronas, RDM Coronas de Luxe, sometimes a Cohiba Lancero (in fact a great cigar) and every now and then a well aged Lusitania - best from Mitchells 1985 stocks.

As in the Cuban cigar trade at comes all down to the business between the involved PERSONS Christopher considers it as being important to maintain extraordinary contacts to the Cuban cigar industry. Christophers strong point is that he finds the right cigars as he somewhat seems being liked by the Cubans. Back in 1996 he made the Partagas Salomones, now considered as being one of the most searched after cigars ever, and recently he re-launched Bolivar Gold Medals and Por Larrañaga Lonsdales. Nonetheless he is not a member of any Cuban party.

The translation of MRN's famous "Illustrated Encyclopaedia of post revolution Havana cigars" into German language has been made by him - and he enjoys working together with the author himself, a well known Hong Kong-Chinese cigar collector. As most of Christophers Partágas Salomones found their way to Hong Kong he is not unknown to the Far East collectors. La Casa del Habano Hamburg will turn out as the hottest spot for highest quality Cuban cigars - that is his aim.
