Somewhere between a portrait of American life by Norman Rockwell and an episode of Cheers lies the nature and grandeur that is Casa Fuma Fine Cigars. When sitting down with friends, many a conversation has been had on what our ideal cigar store would look like, and I am glad to say that Casa Fuma not only accomplishes that, but exceeds expectations! From the first time you walk in, its like an man’s version of Disneyland, there is just something magical about it. It could be ...
There is no simple way to describe the cigar lifestyle! No singular mold, word, or recipe that you can conjure up can come close to encapsulating it. In fact, I don’t even know that I can do it justice in my humble attempt to write about it. You see it can be as simple as sitting on your front porch enjoying your favorite go-to cigar by yourself, or as complex as big events, shows, and cigar societies. It can be a lazy day or a ritzy night. It seems to bridge social, political, and racial gaps. It can include sports, poker, ...
Wrapper: Connecticut Shade Filler: Nicaragua Size: Epicure or "E" (6x54) Strength: Mild-Medium There's always something great about getting together with a group of friends and hitting the golf course early in the morning. Perhaps it's the smell of fresh cut grass, the cool crisp air you don't get in the workplace, or...maybe it's something more. Maybe it's the pride you get from seeing the keg-golf cart attachment (that you spent a full weekend building) flawlessly work.

WASHINGTON (AP) – For some, celebrating St. Patrick’s Day isn’t the same without chomping on a cigar. That’s why one city lawmaker is pushing for an exception to the District of Columbia’s smoke-free laws for two events.
Councilman Jack Evans proposed an exception for the Society of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick and another organization, Fight for Children, that hosts an annual boxing fundraiser.
Evans was able to convince the council to pass a one-year waiver and is now hoping to make the exception permanent. Evans says the emergency measure is for two nights a year and workers can opt out of working the events.
Angela Bradbery, co-founder of Smokefree DC, urged the mayor to veto the bill she says would force workers to choose between their health and a paycheck.
