Smoke Night LIVE – King of the Ring, Celebrity Cigar Brand Bracket Challenge

What is the most exciting cigar brand represented by a celebrity? In this episode, the Dojo crew, joined by co-host Juan Cancel and special guest William ‘Cigar Coop’ Cooper, will crown the King of the Ring—the ultimate celebrity cigar brand. In this bracket challenge, it’s not just about the quality of the cigars but also the celebrity’s influence and the overall positive vibe of the brand.

In this episode, we sit down with Justin Andrews, Director of New Business Development at Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG). Justin will be joining us live in-studio from Dojo headquarters and will update us on all STG brands, including Diesel, Partagas, Room101, Alec Bradley, and more.

The term ’boutique cigar company’ is often used in the cigar industry, but what does it truly mean? Does it describe the company’s size, its focus on artistry, or a blend of multiple factors?

Smoke Night LIVE – Regional Cuisine with Rafael Nodal by Cigar Dojo

Bill Ives and Juan Cancel reunite on this episode of Smoke Night LIVE. Ten years ago, Bill and Juan were Cigar Dojo members and cigar enthusiasts who decided to start a cigar brand named Cubariqueño, also known as Protocol. They quickly became one of the most popular brands on the market, paying homage to police officers worldwide. Since then, the company has undergone many changes, including Bill leaving to focus on his career in law enforcement. On this show, Juan and Bill reunite for the first time to reminisce and discuss Protocol’s wild history over the past decade.
