The CSWC: a competition to run out the clock
Winston Churchill once said “ Smoking cigars is like falling in love. First you are attracted by its shape; you stay for its flavor and you must remember never, never to let the flame go out”. This could have been said about the CSWC, a genuine international competition whose goal is to smoke a cigar for the longest period of time.
Participants in the event slowly smoke a cigar, savouring its many qualities. The winner is the last person to finish smoking their competition cigar.
The competition travels to some of the most beautiful locations around the world with the final always taking place in Split (Croatia). Marko Bilic the founder has received awards and is internationally recognized for his work, passion and enthusiasm.
This 2022 edition was one of the most spectacular, and it will be remembered as the glory of a Polish couple Borys and Klaudia who, for the first time, conceived the world as a slow smoking couple [...].
