The first Talisman`s from the July production en la fabrica la Corona didn`t have so dark or better black maduro wrappers as my knowledge. The color was dark brown, no black produced only in a little quantity to complete the production plan. PC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe Ontario has Sig V for $120 cdn... Being from the US, I am not understanding how cigars are so expensive up North. When you say $90cdn, is that before tax or does it include the tax? Why are they so expensive? I can't see how anyone could afford this hobby in Canada. Seems almost illegal to set prices that high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the taxes jacking it up. Something along the lines of 113%. That box of Behike 56 you can grab in Cuba (availability pending) for ~$450USD...sells for at least $1100 CAD because of taxes. We "afford" it by either taking cheap trips to Cuba now and then, or taking advantage of online sites such as CUNINT.. B&M's up here have it tough. I support them when I can with the odd purchase but it's not feasible to stock up locally. Some of them do have "rich" clientele that couldnt be bothered going the online route and are frequent shoppers. Some. Not all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to Cuba to stock up, do they tax you when you get back to Canada? I feel sorry for your B&Ms. I'm pretty sure a 113% tax on anything falls under the description of "cruel and unusual punishment" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can bring more if you're willing to risk it though. Often, the agents either put on a small duty or just let you pass through with a warning. they're more concerned with alchohol limits than tobacco it seems. B&M's do "OK" here. At least in Ontario. In some provinces they seem to do better. Quebec still has grandfathered in cigar lounges where you can smoke. Every other Province does not.

Harikezo Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 This is a fake one my friend. Talisman will not be released until Nov 7th of this year by Hunters & Frankau. This has been confirmed by Habanos S.A as H&F will be the first one in the whole world to introduce and put these on sales. All you have seen or heard about its release with on-hands photos were just...well..crap. ?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potpest Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 That's odd. I heard it will be first released in the Uk through a special event by Hunters&Frankau. As they have been awarded the world release by Habanos.

planetary Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 46 minutes ago, mk05 said: In all seriousness, the cigars being released are too expensive. HSA will rue the day the company decided to fully price in the cigars pre-sale. We'll see. It looks to me like they're testing the limits of what the market will bear from a Cohiba EL. Why wouldn't they do this, given how previous ELs sold? It's in their best interest to capture as much value as possible at the initial sale, leaving less on the table for the secondary market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaunster Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 They will sell at double the Cuba release price on the secondary market straight away. Absolute madness, why when it comes to cigars do people lose all sense of value for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianbeaver Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Going by the price stated in OP, the cigar above is less than ten BHK54 from COH on his list right now. Half the price if you can get it around $500. And if it smokes great in 5 years, it will rock our world. Or not. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdnLimitada Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Those don't even look good. I like the comment of being dragged through a RP factory. They do look like a crappy non-Cuban to my eye. Skipping this LE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garbandz Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 Let's all pay $300.00 to go to an event and smoke a cigar which really will not be ready for consumption for 5 years....... WHY? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
