BY HEATHER ALDRIDGE & DUSTIN BUTLER
McKinney-based Rolling Cigars o ers mobile, custom experience Rolling Cigars owner Ron Stevens got the idea for his mobile humidor business after seeing vendor trucks set up at an event. “I always forget cigars when I go some place,” Stevens said. “[My wife and I] were at the Truck Yard and I looked up and saw a bunch of vendor trucks ... and it popped into my head to look into the possibility of a cigar [vendor] truck.” Rolling Cigars is a mobile humidor o ering di erent styles of cigars at various events such as weddings, trade shows and festivals. What’s special about it? Stevens said Rolling Cigars o ers eight to 12 types of cigars at every event. Additionally, Stevens said he has partnered with a Dallas-area company that sells cigar accessories so he can o er customized lighters, cutters and humidors. “I try to make a unique experience for the actual person,” Stevens said. “I want to t what they’re looking for.” Additional details Stevens’ 18 ft. trailer can travel to di erent locations, but Rolling Cigars regularly sets up at various North Texas locations, including Tupps Brewery in McKinney, where Rolling Cigars has been selected to be a regular vendor. “I really believe that everything around a cigar involves some type of celebration, whether it’s a celebration of life, ... a graduation, [or] a wedding,” Stevens said. “A lot of people relate cigars to really fun memories and good times.”
