Steve Saka - Drew Estate Interview Article

I think this came out pretty good and is quite interesting. For those that may not know, Steve Saka is a heavyweight in the industry.

He had one of the first cigar web sites ever. He has written more cigar articles than most cigar writers. He worked for JR Cigars, and is now President of Drew Estate here in Miami.

Here is my interview with him - Click Here

Great Article Kevin,
I posted a comment in the space provided, it seemed to recognize me as timlw but when I hit submit, it kicked me out and said I have to be a registered member to submit a comment. Can you rewrite the code so that it would just ask you to login instead of wipe out your mesg? I hate to compose a nice note and have it vanish.

An awesome read, Kevin. Truly one of the giants in the industry. Here's hoping he gets some of that stronger stuff to market. Big thanks to you(and Patrick) for the continued information that benefits all of us. You guys are making this the best board going!

LOL. He just emailed me to shrink the picture of him down. Everyone is their own worst critic. I reduced his pic by 1/3rd to comply with his request.

The picture I'm in is with Marvin Samel, the co-founder of the company.

Sorry Tim. It got lost. 99% of the time it works fine.

Sometimes there's a little bug here. When you go into the article, make sure the site recognizes you as being logged in.

Check the upper left corner to see if your logged in. Then make the comment. As one last safety measure, copy you comment and save it to your clipboard just in case so you don't have to type it again.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

An excellent article with several notable quotes from the most quotable Mr. Saka. Steve is a great guy. Very knowledgable. Love his term "cigar wonks". You gotta read the old Cigar Nexus, still great stuff.
