Cool Pepin rolling video

Loved the video.

Pulling out of Corona yesterday at 1 pm, Pepin pulled up his mini van and him and a few guys unloaded the stuff for the rolling event at 2. Of course, Pepin was smoking one of his cigas and the mini van was pouring out smoke when the sliding door opened.

I felt it inappropriate to bother them so I continued to walk to my truck. I felt a little awkward having a Padron Anniv in my hand anyways. I had 15 minutes to be back at my desk.

I left work early and got there for the last hour but found out he had left at 5 to catch a flight to his factory in Nicaragua. I was dissaointed and browsed the cigars on sale and tried the new maduro. His vice president of the company struck up a nice conversation and we chatted for a bit.

What shocked me was when I mentioned Club Stogie, he remembered meeting Carlos and even knew about the Florida herf in February and said he is hoping to attend but isn't sure.

Overall a cool experience with a really nice guy who told me all kinds of cool things about the cigar I was smoking and the ones I love to smoke from Cuba.
 
I'd like to sit Pepin down with my buddy Tim... would be interesting.
Only if your buddy speaks Spanish. :D

Went to the event Friday and it was great. Pepin didn't do much, had another guy doing most of the rolling. Pepin did do a few baseball bats.

Was great to see him and the others, all really nice. I smoked the fresh rolled one on Sunday and was fantastic.
 
So cool to watch a master at work. He makes it look ridiculously easy. I've got 4 Pepins in the humi, including the JJ Maduro. I can't wait!
