It’s #ThrowbackThursday and this week we have a picture from the archives of David Garofalo circa 1996 or 1997. There are three gentlemen pictured here and if you can name 2 of the three people we will send you a 3 pack of cigars plus a little swag. It shouldn’t be too difficult, if we wanted to make it overly difficult we would ask for the name of all three gentlemen.
To enter leave a comment, we will check back periodically throughout the day and update this posting with a back story once a winner has been picked.

Well that was a quicker win then I expected with iratebass winning. We will contact him later on today to get his mailing address. The picture is the first ever meeting between Steve Saka and Jonathan Drew. It occurred at Two Guys Smoke Ship in either 1996 or 1997.
It was the first cigar event ever for Jonathan Drew who has his back to us and it was before Drew Estates, he was selling Cimero Cigars. Steve Saka (with the beard) was not yet in the cigar business but was a customer of the store. The third member was Jack who went on to become one of the first reps for Drew Estate.
