I had the chance to sit down and talk to SS last night. He is friends with the owners of my local B&M and he was there to bring in the new year. We talked about how he got into the cigar business. It all started in 1995 with his cigar blog as he puts it, "that was before blogs were a thing". We talked about his cigars and how he comes up with what he is looking for when he blends a cigar. His leaving Drew Estates was interesting. He was a major shareholder within the company. When he was ready to leave they wanted him to sign away his right to the cigars he developed for them. Of course he said no. That lead to a legal battle. In the end DS bought him out. This time spent with SS made my night very enjoyable.
