Post 2008 IPCPR Update

Greetings Friends,

Las Vegas was great for Molina Cigar Company and Devil's Weed cigars! We met some new and old friends at the show and people enjoyed our cigars. Some new sales reps have joined our team and they are selling our cigar throughout the country so distribution will increase now. We have been featured in some magazines and other online media types (LasVegASHtv.com and Dogwatch Social Club both did interviews with us from our booth). For sure, the loyal following of Devil's Weed smokers are ever increasing. Take a look at some of the pictures below!

I met up with Pete at Tatuaje and Jonathan Drew at Drew Estate (he even called me Mr. Devil's Weed! That joker, haha!) and they both had positive comments about us. That is one aspect I love about this business...it is small and close-knit and our fellow peers are cordial and adhere to the old-school values, philosophy and respect; those that are passionate about this business love to see what other cigar companies are doing. Pete gave me his latest, La Riqueza to try out and I must say it was a tasty treat (I believe it is the first broadleaf wrapper he has implemented in his lines; great job, Pete!).

Needless to say Vegas was great to us and we can't wait to be back home in New Orleans for IPCPR 2009 in August. We will be planning some parties every night so we hope to see you there for those in New Orleans!



In other Devil's Weed news, we are working on a stronger blend for the more discriminating smoker and hope to have them in stores by November. We will have a contest through this blog so the lucky few of you loyal readers can get a sneak preview of the cigar and smoke some pre-release samples.

We will talk to you soon but forgive me if I don't post more often. The cigar world does not rest and Molina Cigar and Devil's Weed are on the move!

Saludos!
-Luis
