The CSWc pre-qualifier for the United States was held at Metro cigars lounge and shop. It was a great slow smoking race with solid results, and the best one this time was achieved by an amazing cigar woman - Nicole Fielder, who won with a great time of 1 hour 11 minutes and 32 seconds.

​

Last year's winner, Michael Gomez, demonstrated that his victory was not by chance. This year, he finished second, just a short distance behind the winner. He smoked that CSWC Rocky Patel competition cigar until 56 minutes and 30 seconds had passed. Third place was won by newcomer Graig Wilson.
