As a young man I was lucky enough to be exposed to the Grace , Grit , Knowledge, Courage and Sheer Balls of a Generation of Men Like my very good friends Terry and Tommie Benefield Junior’s father, Commander Benefield who before losing his life in the pursuit of Aviation taught us about cigars and instilled the sense of camaraderie and celebration that is a Great cigar shared with friends. I have endeavored to create a cigar that lives up to the legend that was Tommie, D. “Doug” Benefield and with the Blessing of his last Surviving son Tommie Benefield Junior a distinguished Naval Aircraft Carrier Pilot and Squad leader in his own right, we believe this hits the mark like a B-1 Payload!
