In the very first episode filmed in the all-new Puff, Sip, Chat Studio I had the honor and pleasure of Puffing, Sipping, and Chatting over what just might be the "Best Cigar In the World" as dubbed by Cigar Central in the UK.

And we did this over one of the most phenomenal Cabernets I have ever experienced. As a matter of fact, I would refer to the entire affair as an "Exquisite Surrender".....

Great time catching up with Brandon Oveson of Apostate Cigars at Total Product Expo! I had the pleasure of puffing on the "The Initiatory", which a gorgeous ultra-premium Ecuadorian grown Sumatra wrapper over a rich Mexican grown San Andres binder which perfectly encapsulates the complexities of 4 different Dominican fillers. Medium-Full in body with medium strength.

The company was founded by Brandon Oveson and Kendrick Woolstenhulme, both of whom grew up in Utah as active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and are now the owners of Salt Lake City-based retailer Beehive Cigars.

The Puff, Sip, Chat is BACK! Kicking off '23 with a profile of one of the most exciting Cigar Lounges in the ATL, Cigar City Club! I had the honor of Puffing and Chatting with co-owner, Alonzo Primus as he geared up for their 8th Anniversary Celebration.

Cigar City Club is the realization of proprietor Julius Bolton’s vision of an upscale, yet relaxed establishment where the cigar experience is enhanced by full-service gourmet dining, top-shelf spirits and fine wines, live entertainment, and the city’s finest humidor selection. Cigar enthusiasts will find a 1920’s Speakeasy-style atmosphere with inviting ambiance where members and guests can enjoy a cocktail date, catch up with friends or make new ones.

Cigar City Club sets the standard as the premier destination in the Southeast for cigar enthusiasts. As a semi-private establishment, we hold our members and guests to high standards befitting the experience that is Cigar City Club. Business casual dress is required for both men and women and unseemly conduct is discouraged.

This is the latest installment of the Puff, Sip, Chat Show featuring Desiree Sylver of Drunk Chicken Cigars. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Desiree (along with Uncle Nearest Whiskey) as she educated me on her time in the industry.... all the good, the bad and the ugly!

I have a story to tell. It's story of becoming a Mega Legend..... In Cigars! 

First off..... the AUDACITY and BALLS it takes to name your new Cigar Brand "Mega Legend?" My initial reaction was wow, that's a bold name! But then, I had the cigar and I'm not going to lie, it had me at "1st Puff". A incredibly creamy smoke, with a slight pepper hint with some complexities that are hard for my evolving pallet to nail but let's jut say that I could not put it down and enjoyed this stick all the way down to the point at which my fingers could no longer stand the heat! 

I then commenced to getting to know Jon Bateman and Todd Williamson, the founders of Mega Legend Cigar and quickly learned that they also have the tenacity, the smarts and the passion to live up to their name. Their brand and their smoke is about as consistent as they come and I can't wait to witness the journey;  please join me in congratulating them on their recent launch!

Check out the stick and check out the latest Puff, Sip, Chat Episode featuring Mega Legend Cigars!
