Creator's Key Takeaways

This is going to be one of those stories that make you want to take a detour on your next trip.

I've been uh welcomed with open arms by Creo Cigars here in Porta Plata, Dominican Republic, and they're going to give me the entire run through of the operation to share with you.

Trust, I'm going to try quite a bit of them um over the next couple of days and especially when I get back home.

If you ever get the chance to roll your own, do not hesitate. Do it.
