It Was A Great Day For The Premium Cigar Industry - Reviews Of The West Tampa Tobacco Company Red Toro And Rattle and Snap 8-Year-Old Tennessee Whiskey

Tony Katz — Mon, 14 Aug 2023 06:00:00 -0400

This week, Tony and Fingers reviewed The West Tampa Tobacco Company Red Toro and Rattle and Snap 8-Year-Old Tennessee Whiskey.

It's not just a win, it's a HUGE win for the cigar industry. Judge Amit Mehta, who just last year declared regulations from the Food and Drug Administration on the cigar industry "arbitrary and capricious," has now dismissed the Deeming Rule the FDA attempted to put in place.

The Deeming Rule stated that cigars can be regulated by the FDA just like cigarettes are. Of course, anyone who smokes premium cigars can tell you how insane that is.

Josh Habursky, Deputy Executive Director of the Premium Cigar Association – and Glynn Loope, State Advocacy Director of the Premium Cigar Association, join the show to explain what this ruling means for the industry, for your local cigar lounge, and for any small business dealing with onerous regulations.

Other topics this week include:
Details of the new contract between the Teamsters Union and UPS.
After a month-long social media frenzy, the mystery woman who went viral after her meltdown on a plane has been identified. Now what?
Tony and Fingers celebrate their 250th episode of Eat Drink Smoke, with a flashback to episode 1.

All that and much more on episode 250 of Eat! Drink! Smoke!

Eat! Drink! Smoke! - Episode 143 - Drink Aberlour A’bunadh Scotch Whisky, Review The Davidoff Dominicana Toro, The Computer Chip Shortage Hits GM, Clerks 3 Is Coming And Tony's Vegas Hot Dog Adventure

Tony Katz — Mon, 26 Jul 2021 06:00:00 -0400

This week on the big show, Tony and Fingers reviewed something different than their normal bourbon. This episode they went with a scotch -- specifically Aberlour A’bunadh Scotch Whisky.

Tony Katz and Fingers Malloy host Eat! Drink! Smoke! recorded live at Blend Bar Cigar in Indianapolis, IN. Along with the Aberlour A’bunadh Scotch Whisky, the guys smoked the Davidoff Dominicana Toro Cigar.

The automotive industry has been struggling to meet customer demand due to a computer chip shortage. Last week, GM announced it was temporarily halting production at some of its full size pickup truck plants due to the shortage. How will this computer chip issue impact the auto industry long term? How has this influenced used car prices?

Clerks 3 is coming and Tony is excited -- but Fingers is skeptical. Will it be good? Should it be made? Will you go see it?

Fingers bought Tony a hot dog in a Vegas casino during the Premium Cigar Association Convention and Trade Show. Fingers was in heaven. Tony... well you have to hear his hot dog review.
