As well as numerous news items about new launches, and events all around the globe, our writers offer up a concentrated charge of firsthand impressions from the cigar world, and in-depth information also in our new issue.

For the Coverstory our editor in chief visited Frederik Vandermarliere in Brussels. He is CEO of J. Cortes and, for the past three years, owner of the traditional brand Oliva Cigars.
