Cuban cigar enthusiasts, including President Díaz-Canel, took part in a luxury humidor auction at the 25th Habano Festival.

One exclusive humidor set a record, selling for $4.8 million, reflecting the growing demand for Cuban cigars, particularly in the booming Asian market.

"When you smoke a cigar, you feel free, especially after a whole day of work," Jason He, a cigar enthusiast from Beijing told the AFP. The event highlights the enduring prestige of Cuban cigars and their expanding global appeal.
