For decades, Miami has served as a hub for some of the most talented cigar artisans in the world.

Today, we’ll take a closer look at some of the most famous cigar manufacturers and brands that make Miami one of the premier smoking destinations.
In honor of International Women’s Month, we wanted to feature a woman artisan for our Artisan’s Corner series. When we came across CSA Creative, we just had to reach out. CSA Creative has been featured on HGTV, Better Homes and Gardens, BuzzFeed, NBC News, Uncommon Goods, and the list goes on and on. This is a one-woman operation. Cristie designs and creates all of her products, and they are unique and beautiful. You can find skeletal spine plant stakes, lunar moon calendars, skull head planters, insect-themed curiosity domes, and more.
For our first edition of Women Crush Wednesday, we had to feature Sandy Cobas from El Titan de Bronze Boutique Cigar Mfg. in Miami, FL.

Hello, Canines of the Leaf!
I'm Jemma, 5 yr old German Shepherd, single and ready to mingle. Pretty excited to be interviewed for Cigar World.
I've been hanging here at Bongo Ron's pretty much my whole life; once I had some social skills and basic training... my humans brought me in.
