CigarCraig Special Edition: Cigarfinder.com Reintroduction, a Primer

Two years ago I welcomed CigarFinder to the sidebar in a post that was mostly about a cigar case and a
pig roast at Wooden Indian. Two sentences, easy to miss. Then I mostly left them alone, which is my

I’m traveling light on this trip so I’ve only brought my iPad and phone so the post might look a little weird. I’ll clean them up when I get home and get the computer out.
