At smokingpipe.com I see Eric Stokkebye has a new offering, Night Slice, sounds tasty too, but at a tad{pun} over $90 bucks a pound  I don't think I'll be having any. Prices like that make me glad I'm a codger  . |

Not to steal your thread, but also at SmokingPipes.com they list their cigars as singles with the price. They just listed cigars from El Septimo and one of the prices was $64 for a single. Don't think I will be buying one of those either. I hope that is either a misprint or they meant to say that is the price for a five pack. Can't really tell.
Called Smokingpipes and the price is $64 dollars for a single cigar. This is hard to believe.

Yeah, Eric is pretty proud of his products, I know that it is a whole nuther animal, but PS Bullseye scratches my coin itch that I bought by the pounds years ago. |

Yep...I remember when P.S. blends could be had for under twenty bucks a pound...I remember when a trip to fill up the car only cost ten bucks too!

These are crazy prices. I wonder with the cost of living crisis around the world, will we see a sharp rise in tobacco products too. 🤔

A friend had some at work the other day. It's too much like Newminster 403 to warrant any more notice from me.

With how it tastes and feels, wouldn't surprise me if they were responsible for it. |

I know that Eric has worked with Samuel Gawith, McB/ Sutlifff, and most recently C&D….for those new to the hobby, the brand Peter Stokkebye is owned by STG(Scandinavian Tobacco Group).

Looks like the richy rich cigar for the rich folks. |

Definitely on the better side of town from me but we've driven up to the La Maison El Septimo Cigar Lounge in Tucson a couple of times. It's a very fancy place but over the top expensive for a ok cigar. The guys at my regular shop figure it's probably a front to launder drug money.  |
