Anyone have this cigar yet? Anyone know why it is priced about 100 more than the 08?

I was wondering the same thing.......can't be that much of a difference

I just got a few in but I have not had it yet. It looks a little darker than the 08. I wish I could get more of the 2007. Now, that was a good cigar!

Part of that extra $100 is friendly HOWDY from the good ole SCHIP Tax. The reason it is still so much lower on the 08 is because the Tax doesn't apply to cigars that were already in stock. The 09 is all new stock and is going to be higher.

Yeah, but the SCHIP caps at $0.42 a cigar, so it should only go up $8.40 for a box of 20. $100 is considerably more than $8.40.

maybe becuase they only made 25,000 this yea

thanks for the pm. Wheelie, your on top of things. I doubt it's schip. Anyone from Ccom care to give us some info?

I saw tha too... I don't know.. That is a huge cost increase. I will wait for it to show up in a daily special at a more reasonable price

I think because its so limited

Alex Svenson

Price is because of availability. This years batch is considerably smaller and the wrapper is a very different Dominican Sun Grown. In years past, La Aurora made the cigar, this year MATASA made it. Nice smoke, if you like the 5 Vegas Relic, you will like this one.

I definitely agree with that point. It's a good smoke, worth trying. I'll have to smoke a few more, but as it sits right now it is likely to fall right behind the '06 as my favorite Limitada.
