IPCPR 2010: Habana Cuba Cigar Co.

Habana Cuba Cigar Co. (makers of Oliveros) launched a host of new products, including SWAG, an entirely new line. (It’s a Dominican puro made only from Ligero from the same farm co-owned by company head Rafael Nodal and Litto Gomez) That being said, I spent most of time at the booth with larger than life Texas legend, Kinky Friedman. Kinky’s new line, the Lone Star series is… I honestly don’t remember much beyond that.
