It's just way to much stuff coming out, I'm really getting tired of trying to keep up with it all. I'm really feeling burnt out and turned off from it all.

Then you don't want to hear Tatuaje is supposed to have a big year. A lot of special retailer releases and killer blends he's bringing back.

Yea Pete is opening a store in Maine, they bought a old bank and turned the vault into a humidor. KC gave me the whole run down a few months back when I ran into him at an event. Pete and KC are going to be at Famous tomorrow doing a event

When Pete came to our shop we were talking and he said he wants to take a break from special editions. He followed that up by saying the reps would want to kill him.

I think if he took a year off people would be freaking out and amped for the follow up year.

Its the business model for the industry to constantly churn out new stuff to keep their brands relevant. Which makes the proposed FDA regs so damaging, as every new release would have to under go a full review prior to launch. This is similar to the way Rx drugs are approved, the drug maker pays the FDA a $1.6 million "User Fee" to guarantee the drug is reviewed within a year. However, the FDA rarely makes that deadline with reviews dragging on for up to 2-years. And a review does not guarantee approval, they can simply say No to approval. If cigar makers have to pay a user fee, which it will, there will be very few new releases in the future. It could be why we are seeing such a flurry of activity ahead of the FDA decision.
