On Episode 286, we are honored to welcome back one of the true legends in the cigar industry, the one and only Christian Eiroa of C.L.E. Cigar Company. Christian is known for his leadership at Camacho, but for the last decade, he has been at the helm of his own venture, C.L.E. In the past couple of years, there have been plenty of innovative projects coming from C.L.E., and we’ll talk about them tonight. Plus, we will have our FSG Beef Question of the Night, Tabacalera USA Ties That Bind, Alec Bradley Live True, Espinosa Today in Sports History, and Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust Deliberation segments. Our Deliberation Segment will go in-depth on the PCA decision to lift cigar media dues.

Looking back several years ago, it was not unusual for Rocky Patel Premium Cigars to release seven or more new lines at the IPCPR Trade Show. These numbers have been streamlined over the past couple of years. This year the company introduced two new lines at the Trade Show. Leading the pack would be The Edge 20th Anniversary – a line that had been promoted prior to the PCA 2022. The second, with details kept under wraps, is the Rocky Patel DBS. At the same time, Rocky Patel Premium Cigars has been on a roll – delivering some high quality products. This resulted in a #1 Cigar of the Year from Cigar Coop in 2021 with the Rocky Patel Winter Collection; and a Prime Time Award for Best Large-sized company. We would have the opportunity to present owner Rocky Patel these awards at PCA 2022. PCA 2022 Report: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-nn1
