This week Walter Cyran has a question about what to do when a cigarette smoker asks you to put out your cigar in a public smoking area. Dale announces that he will be going on the CigarTourism.com 2012 trip to Nicaragua/Honduras. If you want to join Dale on the trip, sign up now before all the seats are gone! A few places on the Dominican Republic trip are also still available. There are two contests this month: 1) Enter guest host Craig Schneider's Esencia Contest by sending in your review or "experience" of smoking an Esencia cigar to [email protected]. (Be sure to type "Esencia" on the subject line.) On Craig's next appearance on DogWatch (Show #348 recorded on October 14th), he will be awarding some cigars from his personal humidor for the best submission (as he judges it). 2) You can also enter October's Palio Cutter Contest by sending a photo of you or your friends enjoying a cigar to [email protected]. (Don't forget to include your mailing address and type "Palio" on the subject line.) September's winner of a Palio cutter is Dan Lawson. To see the September pictures, click on the Contest icon on the www.cigarmedia.tv home page. The featured 'Cigar of the Week' is the Alec Bradley American Classic. Liz interviews Colin Ganley, Chief Editor of Cigar Journal, on What's hot? What's not? What's next? The 'What's My Band?' cigar is the Torano Master provided by Liz.
