Editor’s Note: This week in Dortmund, Germany, the European tobacco industry will gather for Inter-tabac 2013. More so than ever, the American-based brands have a presence and a market, particularly in Holland, Germany and a growing marketing in the U.K. I’ll be there again this year and enjoyed meeting a few of our European and Asian readers last year, so if you are in the Westfalenhallen later this week, Tweet at me and we can have a cigar together. echte liebe.

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.
