Why not just buy all those pre-embargo cigars at heirloom sales, I see tons of those still in circulation, rocks and all.
Yeah but so many other manufacturers do that to. I mean, I would think it fair to say that Pepin does it with a large portion of his cigars and he uses Ecuadorian tobacco as well as Connecticut...etc. But when CAO does it, its a marketing gimmick? If its a good cigar then its a good cigar, leave it at that.
