A Short Film/Documentary created for My Father Cigars company for their Limited Edition cigar.
Concept: Don Pepín & Jaime García are among the top cigar makers in the world. They created this cigar that they called the Limited Edition all by themselves and DV tv was there to document it. Only 2000 boxes of this Limited Edition cigar were made and each box includes the DVD with a longer more commercial cut of this film in it.
It was filmed in their Esteli, Nicaragua industrial park.
We wanted the short to look kind of the Day in the Life. It was mostly hand held with some tripod, GlideCam and slider shots.
It wasn't easy to shoot on location all in one day, but we are very happy with the result.
I hope you enjoy it as mush as I did.

I smoke the Pepins' masterful puros more than just about anything else (Blue Label, Black Label, San Cristobals, Tatuates, etc.)

But the "My Father" serie is a world; a class; and a complex little symphony all to itself.

Needless to say: Big fan. Big fan.


Well played on the doc piece.

Cheers and Long Ashes!
 
:beer:Hello Chad,
A longer more of a Documentary form of this film was included in each box of 2000 boxes of the My Father's "Limited Edition" made. I didn't try this cigar but from what I heard from the other experts that were there while I was filming it, it's out of this world.
It is a little pricy at $20 but it is made by the hands of Don Pepin and Jaime Garcia themselves. If you can find it and buy the whole box you get the DVD inside a beautiful box. Each cigar is also boxed in a small wooden box.
This is the longer version :beer: http://www.exposureroom.com/myfathercigars
