Sunday Funday with Steve Saka - Sunday, March 31, I attended an event at Famous Smokeshop's Easton PA. location, where they have their retail store and the Leaf Cigar Bar. They were hosting the Sunday Funday with Steve Saka, which featured an afternoon of Jameson Irish Whiskey, three Dunbarton Tobacco and Trust cigars, and three gourmet donuts.  I managed to get Steve out of his shell for a few minutes, you know how shy he is...so I hope you enjoy listening to this episode.

I know, I know, it's been way too long between episodes.  I finally got my act together and recorded one, and I have Bill Coyne, the area Kristoff Cigars rep, to thank. He reached out to me and suggested we meet up for a smoke at Pairings Cigar Bar in Media PA.

In this episode we talk about the rapid expansion of the Southern Draw brand, the core lines as well as the charitable outreach cigars they have going on.

I happened to run into my buddy Omar de Frias of Fratello Cigars at Old Havana Cigar Co. in West Chester. PA and mic'd up and we chatted about Fratello cigars and extra-terrestrial life.

My friend Nik Everett is a local musician in the Wilmington, Delaware area who's been a staple on the scene in the Delaware valley for a long time, and recently got into cigars. It's always fun for me to hang out with Nik, so I thought it would be fun to share that with others. Nik and I talk about his music career, his enjoyment of cigars and meander through various topics as we hang around the CigarCraig lounge enjoying Joya Cabinetta Belicosos.
