Heard that! I haven't bought any Havanas in 3 or 4 years after stocking up, but that tax free thing was amazing. Oh well - was good while it lasted.

Never thought it would end. Effing Chinese killed it for a lot of people but it's a business and they know they can sell all the can make in the Chinese / Hong Kong luxury market i guess good luck to them. Prices are still cheap in Cuba I might have to start upping the number of trips I take there.
Have read that prices are up there as well. As I'm sure you're aware, the recent price increase was worldwide and based on the relatively high HK market. I've seen a few pictures lately of the galley floors - nearly empty. Sure, they'll sell all they can make, but they're not making much these days. I'm one of the optimists out there - I assume prices will some day come back down. They won't be where they were, but back to something I can justify to myself.
Several year old Man O War Special Edition Figurado 7.1x58.
Nothing fancy, but always lovely burn and construction
2013 Bolivar Corona Jr in the way home from work 
Cohiba Ambar right off the factory floor… figuratively speaking. What a gorgeous wrapper. 
Perdomo 10th Anniversary Maduro, robusto. I think smoking outside when it’s 100 at 8:00 at night detracts from the flavors. Everything is just hot! 
Warped El Oso Blanco under an umbrella
05 boli pc from a cab enjoying the Florida rain cool things down 
For the record the last couple inches was so so. Gonna bury these deep and revisit in a few months.
Cohiba Blue with a pretty view, some coffee and Bill Charlap playing, perfect?
