Good point.
In my way of thinking, quality control ought to have taken care of that by the end of the cigar making.
I had no idea Habanos flash freezes their cigars. I don't believe it for a second, either, but that's just me. The cost effectiveness would be so outrageously prohibitive and that government is gonna hang on to every penny they can get their hands on. I just can't imagine it actually happening.
What I CAN believe is that they would say it happens.
I suppose if you freeze you can take a lot less time working the tobacco properly, but with slave labor, you can restack a lot of leaves for what it'd cost to freeze cigars.
Don't pay me any mind, I'm just thinking out loud, but thanks for making the point. It's what made me think about it in the first place.
