Default MN Cigar Events

Didn't find a thread that pertains to this so I thought I'd start one seeing that we don't get too many events here in MN so it's nice to know when they are! Post all the events going on at your local MN B&Ms! I'll start it off.

My local B&M Goodfellas in Mahtomedi is have Maria Caram coming in for a hand rolling event. She grew up in Cuba working in cigar factories with her family. She is now in the US and still rolling cigars. She will be hand rolling in the store and everyone who attends will get 1 or 2 (can't remember) of her cigars and there will also be deals on other cigars in the shop. This event is on Thursday Oct 25th from 6-8pm. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend due to prior plans.

**Disclaimer: I have no idea if these cigars are any good nor do I know much about this woman. Just an event I thought sounded cool.**

Wow. Thanks for the heads up. Too bad I work until 7 and the Vikes game is Thursday night. This sounds pretty cool.

He has a 60 inch hi def in the lobby that will probably have the game on if that is a large issue.

Sounds good, but I'll be down at the Uptown Bulldog sucking down $3 Two Hearted pints while watching the game all night. Definitely sounds like a good time though!

I have a few of Marias cigars in my cooler. Charming gal. I had one of her custom rolls at a scotch tasting at Brits a few months back and it was pretty good. I believe she uses Honduran, Dominican, and Nicaraguan tobaccos.

Stogies on Grand is hosting the release party for the Paradox by Trinidad this Thursday from 4-8pm. Doesn't sound like any giveaways (although they may have just not posted them) but there are buy specials and food!

This Saturday the 8th from 2-5, Goodfella's Cigar Shop in Mahtomedi will be having a bratwurst cook and will have the Army/Navy game on their 60 in. HD TV. Also, all veterans will receive a free cigar. Don't quote me on this but I've heard rumors the free cigar will be one of the Kristoff sticks.

I think you need to RSVP at tobaccogrove.com if you have not already done so. Limiting the holiday party to 100 guests. Looking forward to this one, haven't been up there in a while.
