Stogie Geeks #351

Date: January 8, 2020

Show Overview:

This week, Nelson and Joe Demonstrate the effects of how the wrapper, binder, and filler are super important on the overall flavor of a premium cigar. To accomplish this, we have John Troiano from Alec Bradley Cigar Company here in studio to walk us through this process. Together we will be smoking the different components of the cigar and discussing what flavors we are each getting when they are separated. We will break it all down for you if you never been to a blending demonstration, this is a great place to start, and I am sure Nelson will have some Cigar News!
