IPCPR 2018: Warfighter Tobacco Co.
Although Warfighter Tobacco Co. debuted at the 2017 IPCPR Convention & Trade Show by launching six cigars—all of which were blended by David Blanco of Blanco Cigar Co., who is also a veteran, and all of which are named after specific caliber bullets—the company did not have anything new at this year’s show.
In fact, Warfighter told me that it is concentrating heavily on picking up more new retailers and supporting its original lines, although there are plans for new cigars at next year’s show.

I have worn many hats in my life up to this point: I started out as a photojournalist for the Dallas Morning News and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, then transitioned to photographing weddings—both internationally and in the U.S.—for more than a decade. After realizing that there was a need for a cigar website containing better photographs and more in-depth information about each release, I founded my first cigar blog, SmokingStogie, in 2008. SmokingStogie quickly became one of the more influential cigar blogs on the internet, known for reviewing preproduction, prerelease, rare, extremely hard-to-find and expensive cigars, and it was one of the predecessors to halfwheel, which I co-founded.
