Shortage of CC

[Bob123]

Dou you have some CC out of stocks in UK?
I recently contacted distributor of CC with order, and they are out of stock with H. Upmann Connie A and almost all Cohibas, they told me that shipment was not filled from Cuba, that they are preparing for US market.
I am curious if it is just our small market or it is bigger issue.

That doesn't sound helpful for you Czech smokers Bob. To my knowledge the UK isn't experiencing a shortfall for those reasons. I'm not up to any speed with the industry though. Perhaps check some UK vendor's websites as a comparison with the cigars you mention.

Cohiba suffered a worldwide a shortage in the first quarter this year that's only just got sorted. The same is forecast for 2016.

The UK has been OK as it has lots of stock stored.

I personally don't think it's anything to do with the embargo, more so problems with tobacco yields.
