Benji Menendez meets Tiny Tim

I was fortunate to meet a true icon of the cigar industry last night. Benji Menendez dropped by the Tobacco Merchant in Irmo, SC for a chat session/cigar tasting. Mr. Menendez is on a national tour for Partagas Cigars. More info here: http://www.cigarwise.com/artman/publish/printer_312.shtml. He was extremely patient and loved talking about his beloved Dominican Republic, Brazil, home in Miami, and his lifelong cigar experiences.

Mr. Menendez discussing his love of cigars:
