I agree with that statement. But having the summers off make up for the low bank account.

The MSRP quoted is total balony.

$750 for a flavored cigar? Hell you could buy a whole pallet of Grape White Owls for that!

I like Gurkha - and I don't care if it is infused with Louis XIII Cognac - I still don't like flavored cigars!!!!

Okay - I give'em $7.50 for it -

Re: Holy crap, that's an expensive cigar!

No way I would pay that for a cigar but I have been told that these things are pretty good. The price is basically due to the quantity of the cognac used for each cigar. From what I recall they only get a few gars out of a bottle and the process takes a long time.

Re: Holy crap, that's an expensive cigar!

"Swartz's Pebble Beach is an epicurean's delight where the rarest, most exalted-and expensive-treats can be found. His wine list is replete with old Bordeaux. Kobe beef, flown in from Japan, is served with a mélange of 19 vegetables. Krug Champagne flows freely. And Swartz has added profit centers such as a $1,200-a-pour 1937 The Macallan single-malt Scotch, a $525-a-pour Hardy's Perfection Cognac that dates to 1850, and a cigar list that includes Gurkha His Majesty's Reserve at $450."

From C.A. article. Okay, so maybe I'll have the 1937 Macallan with it......

MSRP $750.00 For A Single Stick

While on my evening rounds at CB I noticed they had a single Gurkha "His Majesty's Reserve" cigar with a MSRP of $750.00 up for bids. The high bid right now is $116.00 for one stick.

Just wondering how many of you can afford this and if you can is it really worth the money ?

Bill

Even if I could afford it, no way I would ever pay it. Not even if it was the most finely crafted Cuban in the world.
