"Beat the Tax" Sale

April 1st - Important Tax Notice*

*On April 1st, the Federal government will begin adding the new SCHIP tax to all cigar orders sold to tobacconists. This tax will be enforced upon all "Large" cigars, and will affect the pricing of each cigar up to 40 cents per stick. Thankfully, this bill will not include a "floor tax" which means that our current stock will be safe from taxation, however, all product that arrives after April 1st will be subject to the SCHIP tax. Due to this impending tax hike, we have pro-actively over-stocked many of your favorite and best selling cigars in order to offer you the lowest prices for as long as possible.  In addition to stocking up, we are also offering up  a  "Beat the Tax" Sale.

We invite you to come by the store and stock up on your favorites at a very low, SCHIP tax free price. 25% Off Boxes of imported cigars and gift sets, 20% off single imported cigars, and 15% off cigar accessories. Yes, that includes humidors! So come grab a low priced, high quality humidor, a box of your favorites, and enjoy them long after the new tax hike has taken effect. We have plenty of humidors ranging from $15 and up, and an unfathomable amount of choice cigars to fill them up with, so come by April 1st for the lowest prices you will ever see again. See you then!
