While Cigar Coop was not in attendance at Tobacco Plus Expo (TPE) 2022, we were able to chat with some of our good friends in the media. Today we are joined by Aaron Loomis of Developing Palates and the Prime Time Show and John "Cigar Surgeon" McTavish from Developing Palates who took time out of their very busy schedules to give us some updates on the happenings at TPE.
We apologize for the audio issues as this was a remote broadcast.
