Cigars are 100% cured tobacco.    Tweetable Quotes: “I started off as a social cigar smoker. I would do it at parties. We would go to a cigar lounge, hang out or whatever. But once I really got to understanding, kind of finding my own vibe with a cigar, I do it by myself.” – Gerald Anderson “It is really just whatever your taste is. For me, cigars are relaxation. Like, I sit on the patio. I mix myself a drink. I put my feet up. I turn on some music, and I just don’t think about anything.” – Gerald Anderson “There are really two kinds of cigars. There is machine-made and there is hand-rolled. Machine-mades are like Black ‘N Milds, Dutch Masters, the ones you find in the gas station.” – Gerald Anderson   Resources Mentioned: Bryant Land Show:  https://bryantlandcountry.com/the-bryant-land-country-podcast/ OnXHunt link: https://www.onxmaps.com/hunt-app Traeger Grills: https://www.traegergrills.com Patreon link https://www.patreon.com/bryantlandBass Pro Affiliate: https://bassproshops.vzck.net/NaQx7 Follow Bryant Land on social media: Linkedin | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube Gerald Anderson: Instagram  The Morning Smoke CLT podcast: https://anchor.fm/gerald-anderson2/episodes/The-Morning-Smoke-Premiere-ecsf7c
