The Habanos Specialist concept was developed by Habanos, S.A. and implemented by Avanti Group Co., Ltd. to establish and grow the brand in the Vietnamese market.

Introduced by Golden Phoenix Co., Ltd., the exclusive distributor, this collection is available through selected authorized retailers, offering Vietnamese consumers access to rare and premium whiskies alongside a full range of Habanos cigars.

Each point of sale is required to comply with the ideal cigar storage standards set by Habanos and Avanti Group, ensuring product integrity and an exceptional customer experience. Habanos Specialist stores feature a wide selection of cigar formats, as well as rare and premium whisky expressions crafted by Diageo. These stores are dedicated to providing highly convenient, personalized service tailored to each customer’s preferences and requirements.

At selected Habanos Specialist locations, customers can also enjoy a private lounge space designed for savoring their favorite cigars in comfort and refinement.

We guarantee that all products are 100% authentic, with authenticity assured by Golden Phoenix Co., Ltd.
