You only need three things to join the Dead Leaf Breakfast Club: a camera, an eye for photography, and a love of cigars. Founded four years ago during the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Dead Leaf Breakfast Club allows photographers with a passion for cigars (and cigar lovers with a passion for photography) the chance to smoke and capture some of their favorite brands on camera.
The hustle doesn’t stop for our Cigar World community, especially when it comes to these creative entrepreneurs. Find out more about some of our favorite Artisan’s Corner subjects and how cigars inspire their work, and potentially even pick up a gift for a loved one or even an early Christmas present!
For this Artisan’s Corner, we wanted to bring some attention to Luke Wessman, especially since it is National Tattoo Day. Luke is a renowned tattoo artist, as well as an overall entrepreneur and cigar enthusiast. We were lucky enough to get in touch with Luke, even with his insane schedule which includes his full-time tattoo job, golf hobby, brand collaborations, traveling and more.
For this latest edition of Cigar World Shop Dogs meet Mufasa, an eight-year-old Pomeranian who you can find patrolling Lake Country Cigar Lounge in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Sometimes, we come across some unique creators in our search for Artisan’s Corner, and Skate Chair definitely fits this mold. Not only are John’s creations different, but they reuse items that would typically be thrown away, so we loved the sustainability part of these pieces. Read about how John came to be in this “quirky” business below.
