This week, #ELOsoFumarTakes welcomes back Executive Director of Premium Cigar Association, Mr. Scott Pearce. Imagine a year skipping the Super Bowl. Crazy, huh? Well, that's exactly what the PCA did in 2020. So, imagine the relief of an entire industry when 2021 came. And when Pearce set foot onto the 2021 Show Floor the weight that must have been lifted? Hard to imagine, right? Well, we'll find out those feelings as well as hard facts and figures in this #Take. Enjoy!

This week, #ELOsoFumarTakes welcomes the entire Smokin' Tabacco Team to sit down for #Take182. Matthew Tabacco & Nicole Patrice have steadily, yet quickly built one of the rising Cigar Media outlets in the last two years. While plenty (understandably) took this last 18 months to find bearings, get reacquainted with life, try to find normalcy, these two folks attacked an opportunity. The answer? For Nicole, it was to co-build a great cigar media brand. For Matthew, well, there are some theories he took the year to wonder how on earth he could get his incredible partner to say yes to forever with him. The answer? Cigars, of course. We take a look at their journey together and apart. Enjoy!
For this occasion, Matt, Nicole, and I are spotlighting the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation.

This week, #ELOsoFumarTakes welcomes back industry veteran and renaissance man Honest Abe Dababneh to sit down for our #179thTake. Last time we got Abe's Take, a little-term known as social distancing was just creeping into our vocabulary. A lot of cigar people found success amidst the COVID-19 Era. Almost none compare to Dababneh! We look back at the year-plus in review. Enjoy!
For this occasion, Abe and I will be spotlighting Kids Cancer Foundation.

This week, "We have a cave troll!" #ELOsoFumarTakes welcomes the return of movie night with two of the cigar industry's finest resident nerds. Sam Spencer of Micallef Cigars and Tripp Waldrop of Cigar Federation sit down for #Take174. Can you believe it's been 20 YEARS since Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring made its debut? Me either. We sit, we smoke, celebrate and break down of the best cinematic triumphs in the last quarter century of film.
This show is dedicated in honor of my sister, Reagan, who opened up my world to books, art, and today's featured film. She has dedicated her life to educating those about art. So, it's our honor to spotlight the museum she works for the The Whitney Mueum of Moden Art in NY. Please consider donating here:
