In realizing the scale and scope of the task on hand, it became apparent that additional hosts will be needed for this historic event. Michael was my first choice,” said Abe Dababneh of Smoke Inn Cigars and creator of The Great Smoke. “I have had the pleasure of not only knowing Michael for many years, but also served alongside him on various boards and panels. He is the personification of all that is good in the cigar industry. When Michael graciously accepted the task of co-hosting this event, I was ecstatic.”

I’m really looking forward to co-hosting this new style of event with Abe. We’ll be delivering camaraderie, fun and education to our guests, safely “together” once again!”
