I recently decided to hire three camera people and called up some friends in the cigar industry and told them I was coming over to film them.

Well, full disclosure: I “asked” if it was okay to film them. They all said yes without knowing exactly what I was doing—heck, I didn’t even know exactly what I was doing.

In the back of my mind, I wanted to capture a moment that was less of an interview and more of a discussion that occurs over our dinners or at a cigar lounge.

No agenda. No pitching the latest cigar. No pressure.

The results, having nothing to do with me, were amazing.

Learning from Carlito Fuente

My time sitting with Carlito was terrific. Although nine people were outside the camera view watching, whispering, etc…it all disappeared. Carlito was on point at the moment and held the floor. I believe this interview will show a lot of people what kind of man Carlito is.

Light up a Fuente, sit back, and enjoy this interview.
