The Whiskey N Wisdom Collective has its roots in 2017 with the launch of Smokin to Success, a popular event that sold out its 30 tickets nearly every month. When Covid-19 hit, Houston shut down, and our venue closed its doors, pausing our momentum.

In 2022, after a conversation with a friend, Fred Costa, we reignited the spirit with Cigars N Old-Fashioneds. Hosted at a local restaurant with $5 old-fashioneds and a cigar-friendly patio, this event averaged 30 attendees, even in extreme heat and cold, and consistently welcomed new participants.

The Whiskey N Wisdom Collective is the natural evolution of this journey. It’s designed to bring together leaders who value meaningful connections, shared wisdom, and the perfect blend of business and leisure.
