Video: The Art of Cut & Light with David Alicea

On Friday, May 11th, we at FineTobaccoNYC hosted an event in conjunction with Hoboken Cigars. At the event, FTNYC event coordinator David Alicea gave a talk on the Art of Cut & Light. Also giving a talk on spirits was connoisseur David Bailey, a member of New York’s Grown & Sexy Cigar Group.

At the event, a good crowd of about 25 brothers and sisters of the leaf enjoyed premium cigars and the unique blends created by Ivan and his team at Hoboken Cigars. The video of David’s cigar 101 is below. Watch and share with your friends!
