“We’re especially excited about this year’s event because it’s going to be held at our new location,” said Leaf retail store manager, David Zayas. “Our new store will be a state-of-the-art facility, and will have much more room for people to spread out, too.”
Cigar manufacturers which have already committed to attending include Alec Bradley, Altadis U.S.A., Arturo Fuente, Avo, Camacho, E.P. Carrillo, Cigar Agency, Davidoff, Drew Estate, Flor de Gonzalez, Fonseca, General Cigar, Kristoff, La Flor Dominicana, Rocky Patel, Pinar Del Rio, Tatuaje, and Toraño, with many more to come. Also returning this year is Berta Bravo, “The Guayabera Lady,” who will be featuring her exclusive line of original Guayabera shirts and other clothing.
Carnival games and performers will be on-hand to entertain the guests throughout the entire day. Moreover, Drew Estate Cigars will again host the Casino tent; where attendees can play Blackjack, Poker, Roulette, and Craps for ACID cigars and other Drew Estate items.
As they have done at their previous Expos, Cigar Expo 2011 Cigarnival will provide plenty of food and drinks (including micro-brews) for all, live entertainment, a DJ, special deals on cigars and accessories in the retail store, and raffle prizes. Because this is a cigar-smoking event, no one under 18 will be admitted, but guests are encouraged to bring their significant others.
