MN Cigar Events

mahtofire14 · 10-19-2012, 01:27 PM

Didn't find a thread that pertains to this so I thought I'd start one seeing that we don't get too many events here in MN so it's nice to know when they are! Post all the events going on at your local MN B&Ms! I'll start it off.

My local B&M Goodfellas in Mahtomedi is have Maria Caram coming in for a hand rolling event. She grew up in Cuba working in cigar factories with her family. She is now in the US and still rolling cigars. She will be hand rolling in the store and everyone who attends will get 1 or 2 (can't remember) of her cigars and there will also be deals on other cigars in the shop. This event is on Thursday Oct 25th from 6-8pm. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend due to prior plans.

**Disclaimer: I have no idea if these cigars are any good nor do I know much about this woman. Just an event I thought sounded cool.**

Wow. Thanks for the heads up. Too bad I work until 7 and the Vikes game is Thursday night. This sounds pretty cool.

He has a 60 inch hi def in the lobby that will probably have the game on if that is a large issue.

Sounds good, but I'll be down at the Uptown Bulldog sucking down $3 Two Hearted pints while watching the game all night. Definitely sounds like a good time though!

I have a few of Marias cigars in my cooler. Charming gal. I had one of her custom rolls at a scotch tasting at Brits a few months back and it was pretty good. I believe she uses Honduran, Dominican, and Nicaraguan tobaccos.

Stogies on Grand is hosting the release party for the Paradox by Trinidad this Thursday from 4-8pm. Doesn't sound like any giveaways (although they may have just not posted them) but there are buy specials and food!

This Saturday the 8th from 2-5, Goodfella's Cigar Shop in Mahtomedi will be having a bratwurst cook and will have the Army/Navy game on their 60 in. HD TV. Also, all veterans will receive a free cigar. Don't quote me on this but I've heard rumors the free cigar will be one of the Kristoff sticks.

I think you need to RSVP at tobaccogrove.com if you have not already done so. Limiting the holiday party to 100 guests. Looking forward to this one, haven't been up there in a while.

mahtofire14 · 12-05-2012, 01:06 PM

Also Stogies on Grand is hosting the 10th annual Toast Across America where the proceeds go to the Cigar Family charitable foundation. The event is this Sunday, December 9th from 6-9 pm. With your $60 ticket you receive two unreleased cigars, dinner, and drinks at Fuegos social club.

There will be a prerelease of a new brand given out as well, a lancero that is quite good, IMHO...

Probably around 7:30. Depends on when Mark gets up here.

mkarnold1 · 12-06-2012, 05:56 PM

I'm going to try to get to your place by 7ish, bro. Then we can head up to the Grove together.

Nathan · 12-06-2012, 07:18 PM

Well I will be there with the girlfriend and I will be wearing a grey Minnesota hoodie if you want to say hello, probably around 8-8:15.

Mattso3000 · 12-07-2012, 05:54 AM

I'll be the one in the purple and gold speedo.

Well now I'm all jealous I can't make it. I will be at Goodfellas in Mahtomedi around 3 for a smoke if anyone is around and willing to come 10 minutes NE of St Paul. Just sayin!
