It would require a nuclear warhead to take out 4/5th of the world's population for Cuba to produce enough cigars to consistently meet the demand.

It is bad for us, but it seems that Habanos is getting smart and learning their high worth niche their market. They could release 888 boxes of 88 sticks for RMB 28,888 and they would be sold out immediately.

Claim that it is "plume"

Doesn't matter which brand: 1. Make 5 sizes. Determine RG and length by determining how much wrapper leaf you have available, and put as much filler inside to maximize size and length. 2. Make all boxes into a gift like presentation format. Use a heavy expensive wood. Put many bands on each cigar in gold color. 3. Name each of the 5 sizes after a Chinese Celestial Animal. 4. Make it Chinese market exclusive only. 5. Determine what you think is a fair selling price. Multiply that by 5 fold. 6. Watch the Chinese market buy you out the next morning. Spend that afternoon drinking mojitos whilst regretting that you didn't multiply the fair selling price by 10 fold.

Once you realize how easily people can become triggered by small things and especially by matters that they can't ever control, it makes you recognize and appreciate the choices and decisions that are within your control.

The only place I have seen decent quantities of cubans recently in Kuala Lumpur International Airport

Is it standard to read the Dhaka Tribune to gain insight into ASX listed companies? I am disliking the recent trend of ASX listings that only hold foreign assets. If you want to see how it can go wrong, have a look as ASX listed X64.

Cuban cigars in general. Whilst many will unwillingly accept (tolerate), for me, the latest prices of Cuban cigars is no longer justifiable to enjoy a bundle of decomposing tobacco leaves. Cuban leaf still seems far superior to NC leaf, but fortunately there are plenty of NC's for my taste buds to explore. Rob, if it weren't for this site, I would have given up on Cubans many years back.

1) HSA leads the cigar market, theme they don't follow trends. NC's are always chasing HSA names, references and flavor profiles. 2) Why would HSA worry about US market dimensions? HSA's biggest market is China. They have done numerous products aligned to Chinese New Year, Zodiac's and auspicious numbers.

It was a joke my friend, hence the ... And you are correct, I do hope that BoliDan is doing well. Based upon his pictures, he seems to be handling his situation much better than I imagine most would.
