    Great topic! The whole FDA rule and this "Nanny State" of ours is a very sore subject, but that's a whole other topic. I really haven't noticed any of the boutiques, I generally smoke, disappear. I talk to a few of the Rep's when I'm at the lounge or at an event and their comments are generally "full steam ahead with production and introduction of new blends, vitola, etc.

    I don't know if that's a good thing! Because to Tom's point, although I like to try new blends, there are some "go to" smokes that you just always want to be able to find.

    Yes, 'cause after all, the whole point of trying new sticks is so you can continue to buy more of the ones you really like.

    I thought you just liked to buy new blends

    I don't think it had anything to with FDA rules, but I was sad to see Tatuaje discontinue the La Cassita Criolla and the LA Requeza
    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

    I do, I do!!

    But everybody, even me, has a few "go to" smokes!
    Thank goodness all of the DPG's are regular production smokes that don't appear to be going anywhere!

    Gonna check around before I mess with the 60 rg. Hopefully the prices don't skyrocket since they know they won't be around.

    It's probably why they are on sale, I thought he made the announcement last year and a lot of his stuff went on sale. I got a box of the Daruma roxxo for like 50 bucks and the Uncle Lee's for 30 or something like that.
    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

    Thanks for the info, Ciro. It's going to be interesting to watch.
