I just received the new Famous Smoke catalog. I see that Nestor Plasencia came out with a organic cigar line. The "Reserva Organica" involves "the same organic farming methods used 500 years ago" . A box of Toro's goes for $135.00, regular price $180.00?
I do enjoy most of the Plasencia lines but, organic cigars? I'm not the sharpest tack in the box but would it really make a difference in taste or "health benefits"? The add sounds like it it harvested, fermented, dried/cured the same way as "traditional" leaves/tobacco.
Sounds like a keen marketing tool. IMHO I would see no benefit in smoking organic cigars over non-organic, unless you really liked the way they tasted. At $135-180.00 a box, they better taste pretty darn good!
Any input or opinions for or againest :dunno: , just curious.
Happy Holidays :santa2:
