Liberty on Nicotine

Wm Tripp Dettmering

Liberty on Nicotine is more than a podcast about cigars — it’s a journey into the artistry, culture, and philosophy behind one of life’s oldest indulgences. Each episode explores the craftsmanship, history, and ritual of the cigar, from the rolling tables of Havana to the humidors of modern aficionados.

Host William Dettmering invites listeners to slow down, light up, and savor not just the leaf — but the liberty that comes with it. Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or a curious newcomer, this show unpacks everything from cigar anatomy and tobacco origins to the camaraderie, conversation, and contemplation that define the experience.

Because in a world that rushes — cigar smokers still take their time.
Smoke. Think. Enjoy. Liberty on Nicotine.
