Yup. In 1762 Israel Putnam from Pomfret, CT brought cigars, seeds, plants and know-how back from Cuba and started the Connecticut Shade tobacco industry. He was the first BOTL that gave us all the first push down the slope.

hotreds worked in a factory that shared space with the Fuller Russell Tobacco Company in Windsor Locks, CT- heart of CT Tobacco Valley. Hotreds mama worked with tobacco growing up in the same town. We'll never forget that unique, sweet smell of curing tobacco.
