Daniel Marshall and Carlos Fuente, entrepreneurs and friends, introduced the DM 38th Anniversary Cigar by Carlos Fuente at the Daniel Marshall Cigar Lounge in Kitzbuhel, Austria in 2020. The rare collaboration between Fuente and Marshall lives on with this next edition of “jewels of a cigar”, continuing to honor and symbolize their 40 years of friendship.
In speaking on their collaboration, Fuente told Marshall, “I want to do something for you very, very special. I am making a cigar for you, which I do for no one, to commemorate our long-time friendship and my highest respect and admiration for you and your story. It’s an honor to be able to participate with you on this special anniversary. I poured my heart in to every detail, hoping to make you proud. I will give you my best and it will be my honor to collaborate on these historic limited-edition humidors.”
This unprecedented alliance between Marshall and Fuente is an homage to friendship. Daniel and Carlos have spent their entire adult lives in the cigar world. “Carlos and I grew up together from boys to men sharing similar values, commitment to quality and an unrelenting quest for the best. What joins us together, the golden thread that runs through our veins and drives us to live our dreams, is a commitment to create in all we do a richness of character and generosity of spirit” Marshall expressed.
Marshall emphasized, “The Daniel Marshall x Carlos Fuente Cigars are precious, they represent everything I look for in a cigar, effortless draw, rich and smooth taste, a cigar that comes alive. I told Carlos, ‘With this cigar, I am torn. Half of me wants to light it, half of me wants to eat it.’” Fuente responded, “Brother, it is good enough to eat.” The super-premium President and White House cigars are made in two vitola, Robusto and Churchill - classic favorites of Marshall and Fuente. In these coveted jewels, you can taste time.
The limited-edition humidors will be made initially available to Daniel Marshall Campfire Members who have the first opportunity to reserve and collect the humidors and cigars. 10 Humidors of the White House and 10 of the HMS Resolute Desk Humidors will be built in total. Each features a golden engraved limited-edition plaque with the number of the humidor carved in the metal.
The humidor was handmade in California, taking over 1 year to complete and is comprised of over 200 individually micro-carved pieces that surround the humidor. Each window of the White House humidor is painted by renowned Columbian artist Juan Rosillo with shading to resemble glass.
When Daniel completes No. 10/10 of the White House Humidor he will donate the last of the collection to the White House for permanent display.
Every president since John Adams has occupied the

The White House remains a place where history continues
to unfold.
