While many of my brethren are toiling away in Las Vegas at the PCA show, I’m hanging out here at home happily smoking cigars.

If I waited another week others would have had a chance to smoke them and I wouldn’t be special any more, would I?… Continue reading
A Couple Rebellion Cigars and an Interview with Shaun Wilkinson

Shaun and his wife are based in the UK, with a residence in the US as well, and launched a cigar brand. In the video Shaun tells us all about how he ended up bringing a brand from the UK into the US market.… Continue reading
