Today, there are some great groups fighting for the rights of cigar lovers. Cigar Rights of America is a group that fights for fair legislation. This time of year the cigar world puts out a 10 pack high end sampler as a fundraiser. It's worth knowing about.
You should check out Cigar Rights of America. Of course I would never put a link to a website like that here. But they're online.
Tonight my guest is Brandon Wells. He is a cigar broker that goes by the moniker The Cigar Mechanic. Tonight he is representing United Cigars, and taking us through a cigar taste test.
CIGARS DAILY LIVE FAQ
Q. What's a good cigar for a beginner?
A. When you're first getting into cigars, it's so important to try new things. So in one sense, new cigar smokers should smoke a little of everything. If, however, you're looking for your FIRST cigar you might think about something light bodied. Some examples would be United Cigars' La Gianna Havana, Rocky Patel's Vintage 1999, Camacho Connecticut, Oliva Connecticut Reserve, or the Liga Zebra. And yes, you can get all of these on Cigarsdaily.com at a healthy discount.
Q. Tim, what was the first cigar you ever smoked?
A. When I was 17, I was working at a video game store, and a cop gave me a Backwoods cigar (true story). But on my 18th birthday I smoked my REAL first cigar, it was an Ashton Churchill. It was 7 inches long and it made me sick to my stomach... If you're just getting into cigars, start with something a little shorter!
Q. Do you carry ________ brand of cigars?
A. Of course, if I was able to, I'd carry everything. I'm currently growing the inventory on CigarsDaily.com. And I could really use your help to do it. If you want to see a specific brand carried on the website, just email me about it at hello@cigarsdaily.com. I actually use suggestions from everyone to decide what we'll carry. Just this week we added cigars from
Drew Estate (Swamp Thang), Plasencia, Protocol, and Esteban Carreras based on your recommendations.

Plasencia has ignited the cigar scene over the last few years with their new family blends. The Alma Fuerte has appeared across a number of Top 25 Lists as a top rated cigar. In this review, we're lighting into the Alma Fuerte Robustus to see if it carries the same amazing flavor as the popular Salamon size.

Look around any walk-in humidor and you'll see A LOT of different blends on the shelf! It's crazy to think that there are that many different types of leaf out there, but there are. And it's even crazier to think that for each blend on the shelf, there are many that never saw the light of day. Cigar makers will often take cigars through many iterations before settling on 'the' blend for a project. In this episode, we'll be lighting up some of American Viking's unreleased blends to take you through what it takes for a test blend to become a regular production cigar.

Tonight I'm smoking a Limited Edition stick from Crowned Heads called the Mule Kick 2018. It seems like every cigar company out there has their own limited edition sticks, in this live video we'll look at a new limited edition cigar, and chat about limited edition cigars. Plus, I'll answer as many of your questions as I can, pertaining to cigars and my life in the cigar industry.

The art of handmade cigars has a rich history that's married to tradition. In this video, we're headed to Aganorsa Leaf where I will have a cigar roll-off with Terrence Rilley. Together, we'll work to recreate the timeless craft of cigar rolling.
Normally, this is a skill that takes years to master. But Terrence and I, along with Aganorsa roller Elizabeth, will recreate a complex blend with Aganorsa's world famous leaf. Here's how it's done... or at least how it's done by a couple amateurs.
