Welcome to our 9th installment!  This show we dive into a little bit of the genesis of this podcast, and a little background on each of your hosts.  This weeks cigars come from the Plasencia factory and we each are smoking something slightly different.  Tune in and find out!

Vijay ON location! w/ Danny and Ariel from La Sirena Cigars!  In Ariel's first interview since the pandemic, we talk company history, where they're headed, and even drop some info on the new Mexican Mermaid release!!

We are coming to you LIVE from the show floor at PCA 2021 in Las Vegas!!!  Well, Vijay is anyway, Keith and I are stuck here in CT, but it's a fun show non the less.  We talk with some top brand owners and get a full tour of the show, a view not many consumers ever get to see!

We were live on Father's Day for a special episode highlighting 2 of our members and talking about what it means to them to be a father as well as many other topics, and of course, we smoke!

This week we sit down with Arturo Diaz, the regional rep for My Father Cigars.  We smoke, drink, and talk about Vans Shoes - among many other things!

This week we get to speak with none other than the man himself, Jessi Flores.  We talk cigars, life in Nicaragua and a host of other topics.  Check out Jessi's work at www.victms1975.com and please consider donating to his GoFundMe page for his daughter at this link - https://www.gofundme.com/f/jessi-flores-daughter-stephanie039s-cancer-fund?qid=b8ed124c5f1df2cefd29fff0accaabaf As always follow us on all social media at @ashchathavana
