This extraordinary event is proudly guided by its Board of Directors, including the dynamic and visionary Rossella, whose passion for creating one-of-a-kind experiences shines through in every detail. Her commitment to selecting breathtaking venues and crafting an elegant journey ensures guests will savor Rome in ways few ever do.
Rossella De La Ville, Dama Del Santo Sepolcro Di Gerusalemme & Entrepreneur:
“For me, every event is about creating an atmosphere where people feel the soul of the city and the spirit of the cigar,” says Rossella. “Rome is not just a backdrop — it’s an essential character in this story of smoke and soul.”
“A world-class event steeped in culture, tradition, and refined taste, all thanks to the vision and passion of Pino Cangemi, a true connoisseur of Cuban cigars and a devoted admirer of Cuba. I would like to thank Pino not only for creating such a unique and unforgettable event, but also for thinking of me and including me on the executive committee. His trust and generosity are deeply appreciated. In a world where true passion often goes unnoticed, Pino’s dedication stands out as something rare and inspiring. Through his work, he doesn’t just share Cuban culture — he brings it to life.”
