Joya de Nicaragua Executive President Juan Martínez talks new releases and competing with Cuban cigars with Boveda's Drew Emmer. Nicaragua is the biggest producer of handmade cigars in the world. And Joya de Nicargua has everything to do with that. Most of its cigars sales are outside of the United States, so the 55-year-old+ company knows a thing or two about going head-to-head with Cuban cigars. In countries other than the U.S., you can buy Cuban cigars, but they're expensive. Joya de Nicargua makes damn good premium cigars priced right. (And you can buy them in the U.S.!)Look for the Joya de Nicargua Clásico Original, a great everyday smoke. And this mild, woody cigar is under $10. (Why can't you buy Cuban cigars in the U.S.? Short Cuban cigar history lesson: In 1962, a trade embargo was put in place between the U.S. and Cuba, which makes it illegal to sell Cuban cigars in the U.S.) What is Boveda?

Great specs make you see the world a little clearer, yes? Rafael Nodal, visionary in the world of small-batch cigars for Aging Room, says that the cigar lounge is a laboratory for democracy. How can you enjoy a great cigar with a fellow smoker who might be a little right or left for your taste? You must hone the skill of respectful communication. Listening with civility encourages those rich conversations, like this cigar talk with Boveda's Drew Emmer. Freedom to create is one reason this Cuban-born cigar maestro is proud to be in America. In 1980, Rafael Nodal left Cuba when he was 15 with his mother, father and younger sister. They boarded a 50-foot-long shrimping boat with 300 others. Through storms, the trip, which normally takes 12 hours, took four days. The love of his adopted country comes through in this Box Press episode as well as in the newly released VegaFina Patriot cigar, which is exclusive to the U.S cigar market with a limited-release of 1,776 numbered boxes.
