This is cool. I live near Quincy as mentioned in the article is where lots of tobacco was grown. There are still many old tobacco barns throughout the area. I hope this succeeds

Yeah, I've been to Corona B&M a few times in Orlando, but never met the owner. It would be cool if the farm was open to tours and such after they get settled into a groove.

That would be awesome. I would definitely visit if they gave tours.

I've been watching the progress over the past year. Interested to see what our soil imparts. Even though I go all the time I don't smoke their brand. This would be an exception in the name of science. Ha.

Absolutely. I'm excited to see how DE uses the first FSG test batch. Of course, I'm hoping for an extremely limted Corona regional stick that we can share with some out of state brothers. Time will tell.

That sounds pretty cool. Lived in Florida half my life and will always consider it home. I hope really tasty comes out of this project

I am with ya James. It's been fun watching their progress with this and will be fun to try.

Corona just reposted this from the Jonathan Drew IG.

Looks like we may see something with FSG this year. Curious....

[SFerrojr]

Nice! Will have to keep an eye out.

 

[Stogie_Bear]

Yeah, I think it's safe to assume Corona will get the first batch. I'll be there when they do.

I saw some of this tobacco Chillin at Drew estate last year when I was there for Cigar Safari.



Looking forward to trying it once it has been converted into tasty stogies!!
