The Kinkster himself was at the show and I got a chance to interview him. He is a very interesting character.

We interviewed Luis Molina and he tells about his brands including the Devils Weed brand.

We interviewed Frankie Santos, Marketing Director, about the name change and new line of cigars.

I am currently editing our videos from the show. We had some great interviews with the smaller companies. As you know we like to promote the boutique companies and we found some great ones at the show. We also have a TON of cigars to smoke and review. I won’t have to buy any cigars for awhile. I really hope they are good.

The reception at the show for us smaller guys was really great. We ran into the StogieReview guys, Doc Stogie Fresh, and Cigar Jack at the show. It was nice to finally meet the people you talk to online.

I recently bought a Canon VIXIA HV30 HD Camera for new recordings of Las VegASH TV. It was a great buy for $824 with tax at Circuit City. Normally I buy from NewEgg, but the CC price was only $35 more and they also offered 12 months no interest. Love the free loans, it is a great way to buy stuff. Jerry from StogieReview.com has the HV20 and really liked his and his videos look great. Look for future episodes that are in better clarity!

On this episode we visit Havana Cigar Company. Justin and JC talk about some past events we attended, the new Defiance cigar from Xikar, read some reasons why a cigar is a better than a women from a list JC found online, tobacco tax and more.

I get to smoke the newly relaunched PIO VI line of cigars. This is the Overture #2, a 6 x 52 vitola.

JC and Justin stopped by Cubinican Cigar company to try their line of cigars. They produce a great cigar that has a very reasonable price. We talk to Luis, the store manager, who moved to the US from Cuba. They have a very nice shop with a great smoking lounge and the expresso and coffee are always complimentary.

 

 

Join us on Saturday, May 31 at Cubican Cigars on Sahara and Dectaur at 1pm for Epsidoe 6. We will be smoking their own brand.
