Hi everyone! My name is John Kelly, but my friends call me JK. I am a HUGE fan of cigars!! I started this blog as a place to celebrate the good times that come with enjoying a cigar. It’s been over 10 years since I picked up my first smoke. It was the classic Monte Cristo #2 on a family cruise to the Caribbean. I have several older uncles that helped influence my decision that day. Being a novice at that time I felt the effects the following morning…but I still was intrigued enough to try it again. There was just such a fun atmosphere created when we all sat around puffing on these handmade gems. Since that time, I have continually added “cigar time” to most major and minor events in my life. Whether it is a small gathering outback at the house, a long weekday lunch, a day at the beach, or formal celebration… cigars seems to enhance the experience. I look forward to sharing all of my Smoke Thoughts and hope you will feel free to return the favor.
J.K. (Just Keep) Smoking…..
Great idea John. This shows your dedication to the cigar smoking society.
Very informative. Keep up the good work and keep smoking !!
Thanks so much! Looking forward to doing a feature about “The Cigar Lounge” and what a great spot it is to smoke.
Hi John,
I began working with the likes of Arturo Fuente, J. C. Newman, Havatampa and others back in the early 90s. I printed a line of cigar label tees for Eric Newman and embroidered logo polos for Art Fuente, Jr. right out of the box from beginning INC INC which is still in business printing and embroidering shirts to this day–28 years and counting.
I am based in Lake Wales, in Polk County–Central rural Florida.
Please let me know if we can do business. You could easily add a page for a store and I could receive all the sales and handle fulfillment.
