Question
Hello Bill,

       This is Gilbert from San Antonio! I visited the factory outlet the first time yesterday and it is an AMAZING store and humidor! I bought a whole bunch of Fincks brands since I never tried them before.

Today I smoked the Havana Blend ans was very surprised. Very unique and very good flavors. My question is how does that tobacco last you so long with so many HB you make?

Also I would love to ask more questions in depth about your cigars and company...The whole cigar business really interest me and I just love to talk cigars. Is there and email I can ask you some more in depth questions?

Answer
Gilbert,

Glad to hear you liked our store. We've worked hard to make it unique and a great destination store, and so far its worked out very well...

Havana Blend cigars are made with a great blend of fillers including a small percentage of true Cuban tobacco. We had in excess of 10,000 pounds when we started making the brand and have used about 90% of the tobacco. Hopefully the embargo will be lifted before we run out, otherwise we'll have to take the brand off the market.

Thanks again for the compliments.
Bill
