    Default Whats the word on "infused/flavored" cigars?

    So whats the deal? Did the law go through and ban all flavored cigars. Also how will this affect someone like Acid with their java and tabac etc etc.

    I don't know the extent..but I doubt the law is aiming this towards Acids' and the finer cigars of those sort. Swisher sweets, white owls, grapes peaches etc, and flavored blunt-wraps are what I expect to be hit when whatever law goes into motion.
    Be about it.

    I don't think handrolled cigars will be affected. From what I've read, it's mostly to combat flavored cigarettes, which appeals to kids (under 18). I know when I was in high-school, I believe camel came out with several different flavors of cigarettes. They were a hit!

    But then Djarum faced this huge dilemma, since their products are all flavored (clove cigarettes). So they stated that their products were actually cigars, not cigarettes. So then legislation moved onto flavored cigars, such as swisher sweets and phillies, to try to combat this issue. It's a big mess, but I don't think actual cigars like Drew Estate Java, Acid, Tabak, and Gurkha's Louis XIII infused cigars will be affected.

    By the way, those Java Maduro's are tasty! I smoked a large and a small gauge... The flavor was better in the small gauge.

    I love the Java's too.

    I think the laws are geared towards the flavored cigarettes you see in the 7-11's and not the premium sticks.
