This has gotten absurd.

"When a cigar has such a hefty price tag, the first question is, naturally, “Why?”

That is a most excellent question.

If wine & cigars were a Venn diagram it would be a circle

My local B&M retailer carries Monte Cristo. He told me he will not order any of these, even though he had RP Conviction and Saka Unicorn Brûlée. Both $100.00 cigars. And they sold out in a week. So there is a market. For fools I guess.

We did Cigar Coop's pre-PCA show a few weeks ago and I took the over for 3 cigar releases at the PCA over $100. That's 1 down and 3 to go.

Habanos will copycat this nonsense with more upscale priced sticks aimed at those with FU money. Afterall, a 150 dollar cigar is obviously ten times better than a 15 dollar cigar eh! LOL
