Beautiful ash, top construction and full focus as combination for the good smoking time
Slow smokers from Italy were among the most active in the 2022 season, and they produced good results for the first time. The Italian qualifications consisted of four prequalification tournaments and a final event. They covered all of Italy with prequalification events, and some of the new names arrived on the spot. Without a doubt, this country will produce future famous names since it is simple to feel that beautiful Italian competition spirit, which truly enriches any sport in which Italian competitors compete.

There would be no official CSWC tournament in Italy unless there was a gourmand after-party.
Francesco Ventura, a CSWC official judge, was monitoring a Time Chase challenge among a dozen competitors. As was the case last season in Italy, the warm-up began with a lady cigar force - Anna Gargiulo. She performed admirably once more, sending a message that we should expect a strong women representation in the CSWC season 2022. Of course, the Time Chase gathering concluded with wonderful gastronomy and great Italian wine, as Italian tradition prescribes. It looks that Time Chase concept will be desirable add in the qualification season.
