Spear’s Review

For those wanting to indulge in the finest Havanas, Ten Manchester Street Hotel offers a diverse array of hand-rolled cigars that one can enjoy in the indoor tasting room or on the lounge’s all-weather terrace while sipping on top-shelf liquor from the bar. 

Restaurant and cigar bar manager Claudio Chesini is based at the Marylebone establishment and is one of a select few Masters of Havana Cigars, a certificate developed by Hunters & Frankau that denotes a high level of expertise in the British cigar market. 

His work is driven by a true passion for cigars. He says: ‘I believe that in order to fully understand the beauty of habanos you need to know its roots, and in order to be able to help others appreciate it you truly need this knowledge.’
