We needed to rebound with Matt Booth after last year’s less than entertaining interview at IPCPR. Matt Booth gives us an introduction to new sizes in last year’s LTD series, along with his new Room101 Cigars LTD Namakubi Limited Edition release for this year. He also shows us his new Connecticut wrapped cigar that has […]
IPCPR 2011 – Ernesto Perez Carrillo
Its hard to think of someone in the cigar industry who is more generous with their time and is able to connect with you on a personal level than Ernesto Perez Carrillo. Ernesto is one of my favorite people to interview whether thats at IPCPR, Texas Cigar Festival or even a local event in Maryland. […]
IPCPR 2011 – El Primer Mundo
Most of the time we get things right the first time. Unfortunately the first time we recorded this interview with Sean Williams it was the first time I used my new setup of the DSLR rig to do a proper interview and I botched the soundtrack. Luckily Sean was kind enough to look past our […]
7 Minutes with Pete Johnson
I’ll give credit where credit is due. Brian Hewitt rocked at IPCPR. I was only there for the first two days and while we got a lot accomplished in those two days it was up to Brian to hit up the folks we couldn’t do together. Most of you already know all about Pete’s new […]

IPCPR 2011 – Illusione
It doesn’t get any better than Dion Giolito of Illusione. Whether its his core Illusione line or Epernay or “Cruz”ado he literally has a stellar cigar for everyone. In the video Dion goes into detail about his new offerings. New size of Epernay, Maduro versions of the Illusione line, special MK Ultra and my personal […]
IPCPR 2011 – La Caridad del Cobre
Frank Herrera of La Caridad del Cobre is one of the most interesting, intellectual, fun loving supporters of new media. Its always a blast to hangout with Frank and talk cigars and get legal advice from him. La Caridad del Cobre is probably my dad’s favorite cigar and I’m thankful to Frank for the autographed […]
IPCPR 2011 – Casa Gomez
We finally catchup with our boy Loren Gomez of Casa Gomez. We’ve reviewed Casa Gomez cigars before on the site and so it was a surprise to realize that we never actually interviewed them in any previous years of covering IPCPR. And yes, I really did smoke that 7×64 Casa Gomez cigar. It two hours […]
