"Retro" Smokes

[Wharf Rat]

There were lots of boutiques and trendy cigars back in the boom time. LGC Wavells were on everyone's list and cigars from the Villazon factory like ERDM, Excalibur and well-aged Consuegra. LaLuna was a cult boutique as was Astral (went under and was bought by JR).

And, Saka was an internet poster, not a company exec.

So, expensive cigars for guys in the know are hardly new.
