I was wondering if there were any rollers in Virginia that could maybe stop by Virginia Tech and have an info session. We have a strong cigar club (20-30 members) here and know that a rolling demonstration would greatly benefit us and local tobacconists. I'd appreciate any help with this matter!
I doubt you'll find any rollers on this forum. Your best bet -- and it's a longshot -- would be to contact a manufacturer or distributor and see if they can help, since they sometimes bring rollers to promo events. However, the reason they do that is to sell cigars to a large number of people -- 20 wouldn't even cover their expenses -- so I'd suggest trying to piggyback off of an event at a nearby cigar store and just make special arrangements for your group to attend. There are some rollers (mostly in Miami) I've seen that can be hired for events and parties but I don't know how good they are and they won't work for free.
Just do a key word search for "cigar roller". there are several companies and people that will come to you and do demonstrations and of course sell you their fresh rolled cigars.
