On thie episode of Not Just Blowing Smoke, we review two well known classics: the Ashton VSG and STG’s Balkan Sasieni.
For the first half, we are joined by the very classy and knowledgeable Lauren Ferraro, the NE rep for Ashton. Lauren is not just another pretty face, she knows her stuff and is the 3rd generation in her family to be working in the cigar industry.

On the second half of the show, we open up a tin of Balkan Sasieni, a classic blend of pipe tobacco that is a staple offering in most tobacco shops and has long been a standard by which other Balkan blends are judged. Does this tobacco live up to its reputation?
We also keep you updated on what is going on at Twins Smoke Shop, debate the qualities of the Godfather cocktail we had with the Balkan Sasieni, and have a great interview with Lauren. Does it get any better? We think not! And that is Not Just Blowing Smoke!
