I don't think the boutique craze is over. In fact I think it is in full effect. Just looking at the releases coming out from the small guys and how hot they are on the market. I for 1 don't seek out boutique blends but I will try them. A few are really great in my opinion. Some of my favorite smokes right now are the stuff you have to search to find in the B&M's. But, maybe I don't have a real good grasp on the definition of boutique.
