Dave returns from Florida after making the trek last weekend to show his respects for Old Man Padron. He’ll fill is in on the Celebration of Life and let us know who was there and who he rubbed elbows with.

We will light up The Upsetters from Foundation Cigar Company as we sit down with Rick Ardito. We will discuss his history with Drew Estate, ACID and now his relationship with Foundation Cigar Company with brands like The Upsetters and the cigar we will smoke in the second hour, Tabernacle.

Last week the boys made their predictions on the end of year lists from Cigar Aficionado and Cigar Journal. With one list down, how did the boys perform? Will any have bragging rights?

All that and the usual bag of tricks known of Debonaire Mr. J, Asylum Barry, Cigar News and a Classic 3 Way.

The Cigar Authority is a member of the United Podcast Network and is recorded live in front of a studio audience at Studio 21 Podcast Cafe upstairs at Two Guys Smoke Shop in Salem, NH and as always you can find many of the cigars we discuss at http://www.2GuysCigars.com/.
