“Having just dumped a cask of rye whisky,” said Joshua Hatton, the company’s President & CEO, “which was then married with some bourbon to create our penultimate Whisky Jewbilee festival bottling, we nosed the empty cask itself and realized that what we were smelling would go really well with a nice, light-to-medium bodied cigar. Our first thought that came to mind was, “who could we partner up with for tobacco and how could we sell the final product?’”

Jonathan Miller is the company’s Cigar Czar and worked to make the project happen. Hatton continued, “with Jonathan’s deep connection within the cigar world we knew he’d put us on to just the right producer and retailer.”
“Aganorsa Leaf produces some of my favorite sticks,” said Miller, “and when it came to include 2GuysCigars.com as a retail partner, well, I couldn’t think of a someone better to work with.”
