What’s up Warfighters? We hope you had a wicked-cool Halloween. Frankly, October wore us out.  Between dressing up as our favorite man-bun wearing hipsters, attending events, scoping out our new HQ and stocking up for the upcoming Holidays, there wasn’t much time left.  So, please accept this as a joint October/November newsletter and understand that our lack of communication in no way represents our appreciation for you, our awesome supporters!   To catch you up, first, we had a great time in Dallas with the folks from Cigars and Spirits Magazine. They had a very cool event that allowed us to make...
