    They were made at Aganorsa before. Completely different Corojo. The blend is also changing.

    The Wisconsin State Senate is voting today on Assembly Bill 910 which would require online retailers to charge the same sales and use taxes as local B&Ms for cigars and pipe tobacco no matter where the retailer is located.

    The bill was passed and signed by the Governor today as WI Act 150.

    Cigars are capped at 50 cents but there's no cap on pipe tobacco; the excise tax for pipe tobacco is 71% of the actual cost to the distributor or remote seller. Online retailers will be required to get a Wisconsin permit and keep records of sales.

    Not really “breaking news” but it’s a recap done by CigarCoop on PCA. The only reason I post it is for @VegasFrank so he can see the praise being given to his close, dear friend.
    I’ll save you from searching…

    I watched his video, it has a good flow and keeps it moving.

    I’m also firmly in the binder/filler/wrapper camp and like to know the composition and components of a cigar. It’s interesting that the feedback he received was similar while he doesn’t care for it.

    Good read, thanks for sharing.

    His video isn't bad, not really cringeworthy at all.

    Just Minneapolis for now, but these bad ideas have a habit of spreading.

    They keep using the term "sampling". I would argue that if you purchase a meal at a restaurant and eat it on site, you are not sampling it. If you buy a cigar and smoke it on site you likewise are not sampling...

    They may not allow cigar smoking on premises but do exempt sampling. Stupid, for sure.

    That’s state law. The term sampling was added to exempt cigars lounges from the state rules against smoking indoors. Previously it was considered “sampling” a cigar because they could be sold as singles and therefore sampled. Cigarettes could not. Now this new law made by the city specifically added sampling to target the only cigar lounge in the city.

    Would have affected my son. More I think of it the more I realize I've never thought this one through. Mason would be the one impacted.
