Coming in at #13 Cigar of the Year for 2025 is the Aladino Fuma Noche Super Toro by JRE Tobacco Co. This was a bit of a change of pace project for JRE Tobacco. The Aladino Fuma Noche made its debut at 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show. Fuma Noche was presented as a bold, rich, and dense cigar. The cigar itself has a dark wrapper. Fuma Noche is also a cigar that was designed to be smoked at the end of the day. This concept combined with the dark wrapper led to the name Fuma Noche which means “night smoke”.

In dieser Folge spreche ich über die oft genannte Ausrede „Glück“ und warum sie gefährlich sein kann, obwohl sie natürlich eine gewisse Rolle spielt. Ich erkläre, dass hinter meiner heutigen Situation harte Arbeit, viele Fragen, Ausprobieren und vor allem eine starke Obsession für meine Projekte steckt. Es geht darum, dass Erfolg nicht nur vom Startpunkt oder Glück abhängt, sondern davon, wie sehr man sich reinhängt und bereit ist, dranzubleiben. Ich reflektiere über meine Reise, ziehe Parallelen zu anderen Lebenswegen und betone, wie wichtig Fokus, Verantwortung und Leidenschaft sind.

« La brouille entre les États-Unis et nous, c'est terminé », a déclaré lundi 22 décembre le ministre de l'Information du Nigeria, Mohammed Idris, qui a même annoncé un « partenariat renforcé ». Lors d'une conférence de presse, il s'est félicité également du niveau de coopération atteint entre son pays et la France. Le porte-parole du président Bola Tinubu faisait-il allusion aux événements du Bénin, le 7 décembre dernier ? Thomas Orimissan Akéré, président du Club des francophones du Nigeria, répond aux questions de RFI. RFI : Quand le ministre de l'Information du Nigeria, Mohamed Idriss, affirme que la brouille avec les États-Unis est résolue, est-ce que vous pensez qu'il a raison ou pas ? Thomas Orimissan Akéré : Il a certainement raison dans la mesure où le Nigeria a sollicité les États-Unis depuis 2014, après les enlèvements des filles de Chibok, au nord-est du Nigeria. Donc, on a toujours voulu avoir une coopération avec les États-Unis, avec les puissances étrangères qui pouvaient aider le Nigeria. Et aujourd'hui, les États-Unis sont certainement arrivés à cette conclusion que le gouvernement fédéral du Nigeria cherche à coopérer pour trouver une solution à ces problèmes de terrorisme et de banditisme au nord du Nigeria. Alors, en effet, une enquête de l'agence Reuters révèle que le conseiller à la sécurité nationale du Nigeria, Nuhu Ribadu, a rencontré le 20 novembre dernier le secrétaire d'État américain à la Défense, Pete Hegseth, et que depuis un mois, un avion de surveillance américain décolle tous les jours du Ghana pour aller survoler le Nigeria. Quel type de renseignement peut aller chercher cet avion pour le compte à la fois des États-Unis et du Nigeria ? Étant donné que les États-Unis ont des moyens de renseignement qui sont plus importants que ceux du Nigeria, avec notamment les satellites et les mouvements dans la région, le Nigeria, depuis longtemps, a demandé donc des renseignements pour voir les mouvements des groupes terroristes. Ça peut être Boko Haram, ça peut être d'autres organisations terroristes. Il y a des groupes qui étaient déjà formés. Il y a aussi des groupes qui viennent de l'extérieur du Nigeria. Voulez-vous dire que les Américains aident les Nigerians à contrôler leur frontière nord avec le Niger ? Entre autres, oui. Ça peut être à l'intérieur du Nigeria. Ça peut être aussi le contrôle des frontières avec le Niger. Vous savez que c'est une région très poreuse. C'est pour cela que je regrette d'ailleurs que tous les pays de la région ne coopèrent pas, parce que ceux qui sont en train d'être chassés désormais depuis quelques jours maintenant du Nigeria, ils vont retourner de nouveau vers le Niger. Donc, il faut absolument une coopération globale dans la région pour pouvoir arriver à résoudre ces problèmes de mouvements et d'organisations terroristes. Alors, l'autre pays avec lequel coopère le Nigeria en ce moment, c'est ce qu'a dit le ministre de l'Information du Nigeria ce lundi, c'est la France. Quel est le type de partenariat sécuritaire entre les deux pays ? Vous savez, nous sommes entourés par les pays francophones, donc ce sont des pays sur lesquels la France avait un certain pouvoir pour la sécurité, je vais dire dans cette région-là. D'ailleurs, la coopération avec la France ne date pas de Bola Tinubu. La coopération avec la France date de très longtemps et aussi bien la coopération économique que la coopération sécuritaire. Donc, à partir du moment où on sait que la France a une certaine aura sécuritaire dans la région, nous avons besoin de la France pour nous donner quelques renseignements dans cette région-là. Le 7 décembre dernier, lors d'une tentative de putsch au Bénin, les armées du Nigeria et de la France sont intervenues en soutien au président Patrice Talon. Peut-on parler d'une action coordonnée entre Abuja et Paris ? Je ne sais pas si l'action était coordonnée. Ce qui est sûr, c'est que le Nigeria ne pouvait pas laisser le Bénin dans les mains d'un régime militaire, alors qu'il connaissait déjà, à sa frontière nord, le régime militaire du Niger. Donc, le Nigeria ne voulait pas être entouré par des régimes militaires et il était de toute façon obligé d'intervenir au Bénin pour éviter cette hécatombe démocratique que nous avons dans la région. Il y a deux ans, après le putsch de juillet 2023 au Niger, il y a eu un vrai différend entre le Français Emmanuel Macron, qui poussait à une intervention militaire au Niger, et le Nigerian Bola Tinubu, qui finalement a fait échouer cette opération. Est-ce qu'il y a toujours ce malentendu aujourd'hui entre messieurs Macron et Tinubu ? Il faut savoir que l'intervention du Nigeria n'a pas pu avoir lieu au Niger, parce que le nom de la France a été utilisé par les autres régimes militaires au Burkina Faso, au Mali, pour dire attention, c'est la France qui veut intervenir. S'il n'y avait pas eu la France, s'il n'y avait pas eu le nom de la France, le Nigeria serait certainement intervenu pour aller rétablir au pouvoir le président Bazoum qui avait été élu à cette époque-là. Alors, pourquoi le Nigeria n'est-il pas intervenu au Niger en 2023 ? Et pourquoi est-il intervenu au Bénin en 2025 ? C'est qu'au Bénin, c'est différent. Au Bénin, c'est que le Nigeria était en danger parce que nous avons des relations économiques très poussées avec le Bénin. Beaucoup de Nigérians ont investi au Bénin et, si on prend le Bénin, on prend forcément le Togo avec. Et le Nigeria ne voulait pas que cette Cédéao soit aussi vite désintégrée, ce qui aurait mis le Nigeria aussi en danger. En termes de démocratie, il faut savoir que, depuis 1999, le Nigeria connaît un régime démocratique. J'ai l'habitude de dire que la démocratie n'est pas un produit fini. C'est un produit à améliorer constamment. Et le Nigeria améliore sa démocratie en termes d'avancées politiques et économiques.

Coming in at #24 Cigar of the Year for 2025 is the Montecristo M Toro from Altadis U.S.A. The story of this cigar revolves around an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper, which, according to Altadis U.S.A., has been aged for 20 years. The wrapper came from David Perez of A.S.P., and Rafael Nodal, Vice President of Product Capability for Altadis U.S.A. and AJ Fernandez obtained it and went to work developing a limited production line. The result was the Montecristo M. The Montecristo M is a limited-production line because of the availability of the 20-year-aged wrapper. Given the age and availability of this wrapper, it also becomes one of the more premium Montecristo offerings. Full Details: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-yln
