Even more foolish is Gurkha His Majesty's Reserve at $1500 MSRP. (JR price = $1000)

The only way I'd spend this kind of coin on cigars is if my last name was Brewster and I was looking for a large inheritance.

It would appear that Davidoff is successful at marketing and selling cigars at their elevated price point.

They’re still in business, and charging what they do, so folks are buying this stuff.

I, however, am not one of those folks.

Boggles the mind that this occurs, that there are folks willing, but bsk is correct.

They have a gorgeous store in Buckhead. Complete with a 21st century conference room where one can smoke in. Unfortunately, their prices are still out of reach for me on anything but a special occasion cigar.

I've loved every Davidoff I've ever tried, many. They are much too expensive for me to enjoy regularly as well.

THIS.
Just DAMN.

Great smoke, but I can buy a 12 pack of good beer for the price of one cigar...
