“Hi, My name is Desiree and I am the Founder and CEO of Drunk Chicken Cigars. I officially started the Company in October 2019. I was born and raised in Maryland but travel extensively. I have a PhD in Organizational Leadership and love to learn new things. I started smoking cigars over 20 years ago as a pastime for relaxation, reflecting and rejuvenation. While traveling, I will locate all the local lounges and try to visit as many as I can. I’ve seen how the cigar culture has changed over the last 10 years to include more woman and love how we are now being embraced”

Drunk Chicken Cigars Ambassador

 I have been a brother of the leaf for over 15 years and enjoy nothing more than a nice full-bodied cigar with a smoky, peat filled scotch from the Islay region at the end of a long, hard day…. or short, easy day for that matter.  Although I am a city boy, 23 years in the Army has given me an appreciation for fishing, hunting and the outdoor life.  I enjoy reading, riding my HD Rocker and traveling the globe.  I currently represent the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut area as a Drunk Chicken ambassador.  Enough about me, go forth and review the great selection of Drunk Chicken cigars, I’m positive you will find your next go to cigar

Drunk Chicken Cigars Ambassador

Curating niche branding events is my passion.  Having begun my career in entertainment and marketing over 25 years ago, I have learned the benefits and importance of cross marketing within various industries. My love affair with cigars began after being introduced to my first cigar six years ago at a music industry event.

It has become my passion to introduce great cigars and the art of cigar smoking to the masses. Currently produce unique events that bring various industries together with the intention of introducing awesome cigars to the novice and the aficionado.

James Johnson

Drunk Chicken Cigars Ambassador

Born in Selma Alabama but grew up in Birmingham Alabama (Roll Tide). Hi, I’m Kaci, originally from Southern California but a Las Vegas local since 2000. I have been a Sister of the Leaf for over 20 years. On any given day, you can find me at a cigar lounge sipping red wine, whisky, or even champagne with a dark, full-bodied cigar and reading a good book. Cigars have been my Zen space since taking a draw on my first stick. For me, smoking a cigar is my way of slowing down and centering myself. I also love the social aspect of this culture and learning all that I can about the cigar world and sharing my knowledge with others when
