I had not heard this. Seems like a very likely possibility though.
I know when Oliva had the Special S, I thought I remember hearing something mentioned about the wrapper being quite expensive. It was going to end up costing them a lot more to produce at one point. They opted to discontinue the line rather than make it the highest cost cigar in their lineup.
Part of me was wondering if we might expect the Undercrown to gain popularity and see prices go up to $200/box after a period of time.
