Over four refined evenings from July to September, the terrace of Miratorg Signature became the setting for a new ritual of indulgence — Steak & Cigar Nights — created exclusively for aficionados. Sixty distinguished guests attended these intimate gatherings, where fine cigars, premium steaks, and aged Spanish wines set the tone for refined indulgence.

Each evening began with a welcome glass and a well-aged 20-year cigar from La Casa Del Habano, setting the tone for the pleasures to come. Guests were then guided through a culinary journey by the chef of Miratorg Signature, who conducted a live masterclass on the nuances of various beef cuts and the secrets of crafting the perfect steak.

Dinner was a celebration of meat in all its glory: from delicate carpaccio to eight distinctive steak cuts, culminating in a luxurious two-month Dry Aged centerpiece paired with Campo Vieja Gran Reserva from Altash/Pernod Ricard. The depth of the beef, the robust character of the wine, and the quiet conversations about hobbies, travels, and passions shared at a communal table created an atmosphere of natural, effortless pleasure.

The perfect culmination of each dinner was the rich, lingering taste of a cigar from La Casa Del Habano. Each guest received two distinct cigars — each with its own character, its own story. These final moments were designed for unhurried reflection and dialogue among fellow aficionados.

While Miratorg and La Casa Del Habano curated the sensory core of the event, Porsche infused the nights with adrenaline and elegance. Guests were introduced to the latest model lineup and members of the exclusive Cigar Academy Uz were invited to experience the Porsche racetrack in Almaty. Finally, HILL Uzbekistan, as the event’s media partner, enriched the evenings with its intellectual atmosphere, ensuring that Steak & Cigar Nights established itself as a new tradition in Tashkent — a meeting point for those who value sophistication, authenticity, and the joy of slowing down over a good steak and a great cigar.
