On this episode, we talk about the latest from the FDA on flavored cigars. Is this really the end of flavored cigars? We also take a look at how Cuban cigars prices are likely to change. How will this impact us in the U.S.? The Cigar Authority is a member of the United Podcast Network and is recorded live in front of a studio audience at Studio 21 Podcast Cafe upstairs at Two Guys Smoke Shop in Salem, NH and as always you can find many of the cigars we discuss at https://www.2GuysCigars.com/.
