Ramblings Of A Mad Man?
The ramblings of a mad man? In this bonus 'podette', if you will, author Nick Hammond asks if he’s mad to stick his neck out with his latest Crowdfunding campaign instead of just playing it safe and doing the same old things everyone else has done for donkeys years. In explaining his reasoning for zigging when the rest of the world is zagging, Nick also tells us why a tiny fenced off plot in a slum village outside León, Nicaragua, shines like a beacon for a handful of impoverished schoolchildren there - and why he is determined to put some of them through school using this latest campaign . Happy Friday, folks. Nick’s Crowdfunding Campaign can be found HERE.

We’re Back!
Some exciting news for lovers of Around The World in 80 Cigars brings Nick back in this special, one-off sneak preview episode. As well as giving us news of a fantastic project about to launch, Nick also lets us eavesdrop on a smoky conversation with Ed Hough of The Safari Series, which took place in the middle of the Kenyan bush, by the campfire on a starry, starry night. On an incredible safari expedition, Nick and Ed wandered, Maasai style, wherever the wind blew them. During their fascinating conversation, Nick and Ed discuss Cuban and New World cigars; how smoke, fire and spirituality are intrinsically linked; the ethos behind The Safari Series; local land for local people; and Nick's burgeoning elephant dung fetish. What other pod offers you all that, plus live elephant dung burning on the campfire?! Safe travels, folks.

Season 2, Episode 12: Fred Vandermarliere of J.Cortés
This week’s guest on the Around The World in 80 Cigars podcast is a young man in an old business; one who is taking on the pressure of continuing, and innovating within, a tobacco dynasty. In 2016, the world of the handrolled cigar was open-mouthed to learn that Oliva – one of the oldest and most respected tobacco growing and cigarmaking companies in Nicaragua - had been bought by J Cortés – a European firm best known for its longstanding production of quality machine-made cigars. Since then, Cortés – and the Vandermarliere Cigar Family, of which it is part – has become a pioneering force in the industry. Latest incumbent is Fred Vandermarliere – the latest in a line of Vandermarlieres charged with taken this prestigious old form in a new direction. Fred joins Nick from Estelí in Nicaragua in a wide-ranging discussion which forms the last episode of Season Two. Happy Friday, folks.
