Our March/April issue is all about tropical island warmth. We head to the Caribbean for a double-barreled photo shoot, one set on white-sanded beaches and another in the cozy coves and lagoons of the islands. The visuals are accompanied by a travel narrative that sets the pace for any visit to Curacao, a spot that packs plenty to do on its 170 square miles. We also visit with Richard Seale, whose Foursquare rum distillery on the island of Barbados is a destination for those with a taste for the real deal. Back to the mainland, we break down the latest report from the feds on premium cigar regulation, and it’s encouraging. Events keep picking up, and among the photos of people smoking and getting out, we provide a full account of this year’s ProCigar Festival in the DR. We give you rum, beaches, smokes and more. Dig in.
