**🎙️Between 2 Burns – Episode 15: "Perdomo, Puro, and Pure Chaos"**

In this special episode, we’re joined by *the man, the myth, the legend*—our good buddy Cole—who recently took the cigar trip of a lifetime to the Perdomo factory in Nicaragua.

From slapping on boots at the tobacco farm to (probably) smoking blind!, he walks us through every smoky step of the journey. We’re talking fermentation barns, bourbon barrel aging, perfectly rolled puros—and maybe even a few too many Havana Clubs along the way.

If you’ve ever wanted to know what it’s like to walk through the heart of a premium cigar operation—this episode is for you.

Light one up, hit play, and take a tour with us… no passport required.

Episode 14 – “Cigar Hot Takes” 🔥💨 (Warning: May Cause Burnout)

You’ve heard the whispers in the lounge... now hear the full-blown, possibly career-ending Cigar Hot Takes from your favorite troublemakers at Between 2 Burns. In this episode, we unload some spicy opinions on the cigar world—some you’ll agree with, some you’ll deny in public but nod to in private, and a few that might get us banned from certain booths at next year’s trade show. 😅

From overrated blends to industry sacred cows, nothing is safe.
 No lighters were harmed, but some bridges may have been.

So grab a cigar, pour a drink, and tune in to the most combustible episode yet.

🏀 Episode 13 – The Cigar Starting 5 🥇
It’s NBA Finals season, and we’re lacing up… our lighters.

In this hilarious and halfway-serious episode, we each build our Cigar Starting 5—drafting cigars for every basketball position to create the most balanced, flavorful, and championship-ready team on the hardwood (or humidor).

Do you go with a spicy ligero power forward that throws elbows? Or a smooth and silky Connecticut point guard that runs the floor like butter? We’ve got cigar matchups, player comps, arguments, and one deeply emotional defense of the Liga Privada playing center.

Expect trash talk, draft day drama, and a whole lot of smoke.

🔥 No superteams were harmed in the making of this episode.

🎙️ Between 2 Burns – Episode 12: “Cigar Shop Love”
Now streaming wherever cigars and chaos collide.

In this episode, we pull back the humidor curtain and light up some truth about what really makes a cigar shop tick — or tik, if you're fancy and probably on TikTok.

We dive into the grand opening of our brand-new location (spoiler: it's sexy), and get into what separates a legendary cigar lounge from your uncle’s musty garage with a lawn chair and an “ashtray” that used to be a soup can.

From the wild cast of characters (the overtalker, the cutter hog, the “you got anything stronger?” guy) to the unsung heroes of lounge life — vibe, selection, and customer service — we break down the magic recipe behind a cigar sanctuary done right.

Come for the laughs, stay for the unfiltered takes, and leave with a craving to visit your favorite shop (hopefully ours).

🔥 Light one up and hit play. This one’s a vibe.

Whether you're deep in the cigar game or just lighting your first stick, this episode delivers the perfect blend of laughs, insight, and behind-the-scenes industry knowledge.

🎉 Episode 10: PCA Hangover, Beignets & Big Predictions 🎉

We’ve had just enough time to recover from the madness that was PCA 2025 in New Orleans—and now we’re ready to spill the (gumbo-flavored) tea. In this special Episode 10, the boys are back with a slightly clearer head (and cleaner liver) to talk about what really stood out at the show...and what made us scratch our heads like we got bit by a bayou mosquito.

We’re breaking down the booths, the blends, the brands—and yes, those questionable cigar-themed cocktails. Then, we’re looking ahead at what’s coming down the smoke-filled pipeline in the next few months.

Expect laughs, light roasting, and zero regrets (probably) as we reflect on PCA 2025 and set our sights on what’s next for the cigar world.

💨 Did someone say “Cajun wrapper?” No? Well…tune in anyway.
