When I first fell in love with coffee, I thought I found the secret to bringing people together. There’s something deep about coffee culture that entices everyone around it. My thirst for coffee and culture has only fueled my love for cigars and the people it brings together. I’m always amazed to see the impact such a small thing like a cigar and cup of coffee can have on the people we love. Coffee. Cigars. Community.
