Weekly News (March 25, 2013)

Editor’s Note: Yes, for the first time since in almost three years, there was no Weekly News, three times. A combination of technical and human error combined with further misjudgment led to the absence of the Monday fixture, but alas, it’s back. Things are hectic at halfwheel, and the last time this column was published, we hadn’t even launched the forum. I am not going to attempt to capture a month of news, but here’s the last week.

I am an editor and co-founder of halfwheel.com/Rueda Media, LLC. I previously co-founded and published TheCigarFeed, one of the two predecessors of halfwheel. I have written about the cigar industry for more than a decade, covering everything from product launches to regulation to M&A. In addition, I handle a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff here at halfwheel. I enjoy playing tennis, watching boxing, falling asleep to the Le Mans 24, wearing sweatshirts year-round and eating gyros. echte liebe.
