Budget 2021 and Tobacco taxes

[Drewster]

It’s certainly become very expensive to obtain cigars in the UK. So wish I’d started to stock up decades ago.

Me too pal me too

So given the recent rise in tobacco tax, I've put together a list of 10 of my go to budget cigars over on my YouTube channel. What would you add to it?

I think Quintero Panetelas would be on my list. Haven’t had one for a while but I got through quite a few boxes when I was starting out and they were generally very good for the price

Never tried those but I've read that they are one of Min Ron NEEs favourite cigars.

I'm definitely a believer that cheap n cheerful can also be excellent. JLP Cazadores and Petit Cazadores and Petit Quinteros being 3 examples that I'm a big fan of.

Funnily enough I recently got a Punch Coronations, as in your last vid before this one, and I got it from of all places... Waitrose. I saw it online and just added it to my delivery and I was shocked to see it actually turn up on my doorstep. Price was not great but at least no delivery charge. I'll let it rest for a month so another week or so, God knows how supermarkets store cigars, and will see how it smokes then, sounds like it might be a good smoke.

The Waitrose I know has a cabinet humidor. Much like the ones we've seen here. Can't attest to the humidity control or care though...

Yeah, I'd like to think Waitrose, what, what, would have a care over their cigar storage, but we shall see. Tesco also claim to have Tubed cigars, tho not CCs, but I've ordered from them twice now and no show.

I store at 65% but I imagine supermarkets will be at 69 or even 72, if they monitor it at all.
