Cigars and wine are two things that you don’t often hear mentioned together. Sure, we all know about port being a natural companion but when it comes to pairings, whiskey and brandy seem to be the more standard partners.

“Here comes Peter Cottontail, hoppin' down the bunny trail. Bringin' every girl and boy baskets full of Easter joy…” and cigars! After you pick up all the goodies for the kiddo’s Easter baskets, pick up the ham, and color the eggs, don’t forget your Easter cigars. It’s Easter and you deserve something a little more special than your everyday smoke. While you are watching the kids hunt eggs, cooking on the grill, or just sitting on patio enjoying another beautiful Sunday, a great cigar will only make it better. My everyday cigar is less than $5, and I usually bounce between an Acid Blondie or a Liga Unico Papas Fritas. So, on a holiday I don’t mind spending a little more and like to try something different. Here are my five Easter picks: 90+ rated cigars all under $20!

Our cigar team has landed in Nicaragua, ready to tour tobacco fields and soak up the culture. While there, they've been sending in photos to make us a little jealous... and it's working.

When I saw Cigar Aficionado post their top 25 cigars for 2016, my immediate response is to always scan the list to see what our stores currently carry and also to see what our stores might possibly be able to carry!

I can recall during the cigar boom back in the 1990s a lot of brands that jumped on the bandwagon and entered the market only to disappear several months later.

It’s great when your career is in a field that you are passionate about. There are many people who work jobs every day that hate them, so I am grateful that I do what I do. Of course, it is always good to have other skills to fall back on in case of an emergency or dramatic event in one’s life. On a recent trip to the Dominican Republic I was recognized for a talent in which I didn’t know I had. Out of a very large group, I placed first amongst my peers and I must say it was as eye-opening experience.
