It's like a 12-minute immersive experience in a cigar escape room! Join us as we search for unicorns, never-released samples and private blends in Willy Herrera's cigar stash. Willy is one big dude—literally and figuratively—in premium cigars. The master blender for Drew Estate combines tobaccos to maintain consistency among legacy lines and to create new releases for the cult cigar brand. His authentic Cuban influence led to the creation of the eponymous Herrera Estelí lines, which include a Habano, Norteño and Brazilian Maduro. The Herrera Estelí Miami is crafted by "Level 9" rollers from Cuba at El Titán de Bronze Cigars, which is the oldest remaining Fabrica in Miami's Little Havana. His family-owned cigar factory is where Willy learned the craft of premium cigars. Filmed on location in at El Titán de Bronze with Boveda's host Rob Gagner.

The guys smoke the Herrera Esteli Lonsdale Deluxe and speak with its creator and master blender, Willy Herrera. There is a discussion about whether its OK to bring your own cigars to a cigar shop or lounge, and a blind single malt scotch showdown that ends in a split decision.

Drew Estate is one of the biggest names in premium cigars. And Willy Herrera, the company’s master blender, is the man responsible not only for developing new cigar blends, but also for ensuring that the blends in the company’s portfolio maintain consistency year over year. In this conversation with chef Michael Beltran on Pan Con Podcast, Willy talks about how he got into the cigar business at his family’s Little Havana factory, El Titán de Bronze, his experience moving to Estelí, Nicaragua when he made the transition to Drew Estate, and how his work producing cigars compares to Mike’s work as the chef partner at Ariete Hospitality Group. In the Patreon-only extended cut of this episode, Mike has five extra food-related questions for Willy.

Tobacco hasn't grown in Florida since 1890 when Jeff Borysiewicz decided to change that in 2013 when he planted tobacco on 8 acres of farmland in Clermont, Florida. Today his tobacco is used in cigars by some top cigar manufacturers including Drew Estate who produced the Florida Sun Grown featuring tobacco grown in the Sunshine state. The cigar was blended by Willy Herrera and we tell if a cigar containing Florida Sun Grown tobacco is worthy of The AshHoles. We will also have The Victor Sinclair 55 Top 5 List and all the madness you come to expect from The Ash Holes as we broadcast live on location from Studio 21 Podcast Cafe high above Two Guys Smoke Shop in Salem, New Hampshire on the United Podcast Network.
