Cigars are the equalizer that bring people together. Lord knows we need more of that right now. Smoke Big, created by Kareem Fort, is an independent film about the Black cigar culture in LA. Kareem captures short stories about cigar experiences to shine a realistic light on cigars in the Black community.

Two of Boveda's founders, CEO Sean Knutsen and SVP Tim Swail were interviewed for the film. They explain how to protect the flavor and character of cigars by storing them at the proper humidity level with Boveda.
