Are You Ready For The Cohiba Behike

January 18, 2023 By noemi

This cigar is not out in the market yet, but experts (both real and imagined) in the world of cigar are already saying that the Cohiba Behike is the best cigar EVER. This is no mean feat, especially since the cigar is coming from Cuba, which is already generally considered to be the best source of cigars.

In February of this year, the Cohiba Behike was launched in Havana, and the tag line “setting a new standard among smokers worldwide” was used. Naturally, the interest of cigar aficionados was caught, and the fact that supplies of the cigar will be limited has only helped fuel the flames. Law of supply and demand at work here!

Where there is smoke, there must be fire, right? While the cigar has not yet been released for sale, privileged people have already tried it. Mitchell Orchant is one example. He is a cigar merchant operating out of London, and he was one of the select individuals who was able to smoke a Cohiba Behike during its launch. He swears by the cigar, and is proud to declare that he as 1,000 people on his waiting list for the cigar.

What makes this particular cigar that great? Orchant says that “this is perfection in a Cuban cigar… the Cubans have got every aspect of this cigar right – the brand, the size, the taste. And of course it’s unique because a rare leaf is being used in its blend, the first time such a leaf has been used in a cigar.”

It will be for sale in June – I suggest you go find your source as early as now.

Utah Smokers To Enjoy Cheap Deals

January 18, 2023 By noemi

If you are from Utah, or you know someone from there, here is a piece of news that could be taken in two ways – both good and bad. Let’s deal with the bad news first, alright? Get it away with.

Starting the first of July, the tax on tobacco will increase. This means one thing: the prices of cigars and other tobacco products are going to go up as well. And, if there is one thing that cigar enthusiasts would not like to happen, this is it. There is no way around it, however. The government has made the decision, and the taxes are going to increase, so we might as well face it.

Now on to the good news…it is just the beginning of April. That means that Utah cigar enthusiasts still have at least a couple of months to stock up on their favorite cigars. Even better, smoke shop owners in Utah are making moves to prepare for the tax increase.

If you go to Utah, you will see shops left and right offering excellent deals. The reason for this is that they are actually cutting back on orders. It’s not that they do not want to keep doing business, but a lot of them are small businesses, and they do not have that much cash laying around to buy as much as they used to. This is even harder on them as they will have to pay the 51% difference in tax on their existing inventory by July 1.

What are you waiting for? Get those good deals now and prepare yourself for the tax increase!
