Welcome back to Cigar World for our next iteration of Women Crush Wednesday. In this exclusive interview, we sit down with Desiree Sylver, the trailblazing CEO and Founder of Drunk Chicken Cigars.

With authenticity at the core of her mission, Desiree opens up about the inspiration behind the brand, her leadership philosophy, and the exciting future of Drunk Chicken Cigars.
March is International Women’s Month, and as you all know, PCA is just around the corner. It will be held in The Big Easy this year, the weekend of April 11 th -14th, and we wanted to talk to the Women of PCA about how the organization has been going, what they have been working on, and what we can look forward to seeing from them moving forward. I was able to sit down with Monique Jones from the Women of PCA to get you all the answers. These are definitely some women to pay attention to because they have plans.
