In this episode, Mitchell Orchant sits down with the father and son duo that are Edward and Eddie Sahakians from Davidoff of London. In the flagship C.Gars samploing lounge Mitchell and the Sahakians discuss some of the history of St James Street.
St James has long been a place where cigar merchants have aspired to join. After years of trying C.Gars finally have a store on the street. The welcome C.Gars has received from the Edward and Eddie Sahakian from Davidoff of London has truly been wonderful.
It's an honour for C.Gars to be the neigbours of such high such standing gentleman.

C.Gars Ltd get next to “no” views on their videos but when these two legends come on, the hits go in the thousands.

I recently moved from my home in Scotland to London and it’s so apt what was said about London being a cigar friendly city, given the availability of smoking terraces and areas - Scotland, or more the Scottish Government is quite hostile to smoking areas, however my favourite spot to enjoy a cigar is the Gleneagles Hotel, who do in fact have a smoking courtyard, one of a kind in Scotland.

I've started cutting my longer cigars in half like Edward. I usually smoke half in the morning after breakfast, and half in the evening after dinner. It actually works great. Both halves of the cigar are equally enjoyable, cutting it in half doesn't seem to ruin anything. He's a wise man.

What a pleasure to listen to you gentlemen as you enjoy your cigars. Can I also commend you for your customer service and genuine regard you have towards your customers in a market where it would be very easy to put profits above everything else. I don’t visit London very often but when I do I always make a point of visiting the lovely St James’s. Long may it continue. Thank you

Lovely conversation between masters and friends. I am very jealous here in Boston at the lack of truly class cigar lounges and shops. I have to travel to New York or DC for a special occasion to visit the great shops. If at all possible, could you do a video on some of your favorite lounges in the US? Thanks again for the fantastic video!

I'm enjoying a Fuente Rare Pink Short Story (and Tomatin 15 year Traveler's Edition) while watching this video for an upcoming trip to St. James where I will meet a friend participating in the London to Brighton Veterans Car Run (on November 6, 2022), so I plan on visiting your establishments (if we have enough time). Listening, I must say that Geneva, CH is one place that you may enjoy some premium cigars (very luxurious). Moreover, if you're ever in San Antonio, Texas we have a Davidoff Lounge at Club Humidor Huebner with some true aficionados which will both educate and entertain. Thanks for the video v/r Ralph
