Interview: Pete Johnson

In this episode, we are joined by none other than Pete Johnson. Johnson is the man behind Tatuaje Cigars – which has built one of the most passionate followings in the cigar business. In this very special conversation, we talked to Pete about his start in the cigar business, how he connected with Don Pepin Garcia and his family, a review of some of the work he has done in 2013, and of course a look ahead into 2014.

Cigar Mount Rushmore

Our segment takes us to Mount Rushmore. If it were possible to build a Mount Rushmore for the cigar industry, who and who would make up the four entities for that Mount Rushmore. In this segment, the Stogie Geeks team (and some of our audience) selects a Mount Rushmore for the following areas: Cigars, Cigar Companies, Cigar Makers, and Cigar Enthusiasts. There are some interesting and surprising selections.
