Fuente y Cia., Jorge Padrón of Padrón Cigars Inc., Litto Gomez, maker of La Flor Dominicana, Robert Levin, owner of the Ashton brands, Rocky Patel, Pete Johnson, owner of the Tatuaje brand, and Alan Rubin, owner of Alec Bradley Cigars.

Admission is free to CRA members; the CRA will have a booth at the Big Smoke to sign up members that night.
