Cigar Madness at Jerry’s Cigars

The event was billed as the largest cigar event that Southern Arizona had ever seen, so, of course, we had to be there…Cigar Madness at Jerry’s Cigars!

Mike Watman, Chef Mike Lopez, Grace Sotolongo, Matt Russell, Scot Litteer & Jerry Yang

This week’s celebrity co-host was Scot Litteer of Litteer Films, who lead a craft beer tasting, matching up some killer suds with some sensational smokes. We were then joined by Mike Watman of Ashton Cigars, who discussed some of the newer sticks in his award-winning line-up.  Chef Mike Lopez stopped by as well to talk about the fine art of carving whole roasted pigs (there were two of these beauties on-site that were lovingly served up to Jerry’s hungry customers). Our featured guest was the lovely Grace Sotolongo of Miami-based Sotolongo Cigars, who spoke with great passion about the company that bears her name, and the cigar that uniquely represents it…the Hechicera. This is a spectacular cigar – we loved it so much, we bought two boxes!
