Who What When Where Why w/ Yezid "Jessie" Acosta of Acosta Cigars
"Acosta Cigars [was] conceived when an unlikely meeting between a Cuban Master Blender and a Colombian cigar enthusiast happened over the love of cigars. ... Yezid Acosta has always been on a constant quest for the perfect taste, aroma, and experience." - www.acostacigars.com

I've never had a formal mentor; I've learned to network with successful people and learn from them. I've mentored a few people in my life. They were either staff, coworkers, or kids at my current job as part of our internship program.

What have you compromised and what won’t you compromise?

When is it a failure?
When is it a failure?
It's never a failure. When things are not working out, I sit back and rethink things; see why the result wasn't what I wanted. Then I come up with a new plan and try again.
Where are you on your journey and where are you going?
Where are you on your journey and where are you going?
I'm at the beginning of my cigar journey. I'm never satisfied and always striving to be the best. By that, I mean being recognized by my peers as the best in whatever endeavor I'm working on at the time.
