Dear Customers~
Over the past year you have heard me refer to or write about "SCHIP". While I thought that everyone knew about S-Chip, I continue to get questions about what it is and what it means to Cigar Smokers. So I am going to put it in as simple terms as I can....
The State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). This is and was a 10 year program that ran from 1997 to DEC 2007 that provided Health Insurance for children of low income families. A low income family under the original bill was a family earning up to 200% of what was determined to be the national poverty level. In 1997 this meant a 2 Parent Family with 2 children under the age of 19 were considered eligible for SCHIP if they earned less that $41,300. As the bill neared expiration in 1997 the Senate introduced legislation to greatly expand the limits. The new S-CHIP that was proposed increased the qualifying income level to 400% of the national poverty level and included children under the age of 25. This would have meant that a 2 Parent Family with 2 Children under the age of 25 earning less than $82,600 would have been eligible for S-Chip benefits!
While there was not much that President Bush did that I agreed with, I will give him credit for this....He Vetoed the legislation twice after it was passed by the Senate.....At the end of 2007, President Bush signed an extension of the current program to cover current enrollment levels through March 2009 so that problematic issues could be fixed in the program prior to further extension. In other words, just like the Auto Bail Out....He punted the issue to the incoming Obama Team! Which proves George cannot only fumble....
He can Punt too!
So what does this mean for cigar smokers and Cigar Retailers, and Wholesalers?
Well folks the picture is not real rosy. Late last fall it looked like the industry had worked out what they thought was an acceptable compromise from the original bill that called for as much as a 10,000% increase in the cost of cigars. The compromise was rumored to be a 53% tax based on the cost of the cigar with a cap of $3.00 per cigar. At the last minute the deal fell apart and now we are looking at a Democratic President and a Democratic Party in control in Washington! While the Cigar Association and our lobbyists are working to negotiate something lower....my guess is that the above will be the low end of the potential increase! I think the $3 per cigar number will get lowered to $1.50, but I think the 53% could go higher to raise the price of the machine made cheaper cigars.....But then what do I know....Who thought my Detroit Lions would finish 0 - 16 this year!
So the bottom line is real simple.....sometime between Inauguration and my guess is June 1st, there will be an increase on the price of cigars to help fund the S-Chip Bill. I also think something else like Beer will be taxed to assist in the funding before it is done. The only thing you can do is plan ahead and make sure you stock up prior to the increase.
Once we know for certain what the increase will be and when it will take place we will notify you ASAP. We anticipate that you should have plenty of notice to stock up on your favorite cigars at that time! The increase will not go into effect overnight, so there is no need to listen the BS of the other suppliers in the industry that are playing the FEAR card on you at this time telling you BUY now! As of today everything is just speculation, the date of the tax increase is unknown, the amount is unknown, and for that matter if there will even be a tax increase is not 100% for certain. In this economy raising taxes on anything is dangerous.
However, as things heat up and the timeline of the current funding expiration date moves closer, the one thing that could happen unexpectedly would be another price increase on the part of the manufacturers. It is my guess that they will do this in anticipation of the tax increase and then at the time of the actual tax increase they will not raise prices the full amount of the tax! If it happens, look for about a 10% increase in February some time.
Ok, now there you have it! You are now as smart as me when it comes to the S-Chip. I wouldn't go around bragging to anyone that you are as smart as me though, but if you are on the ball, you might want to start thinking about where you are going to store an extra 6 months worth of cigars!
Happy New Year and you can count on us keeping you informed.

If you have yet to try a NUB Cigar this is a great opportunity. The idea for the nubs came from the theory that a cigar finds its "sweet spot" at the 3 ½- 4 inch point. All "nub" cigars must exist within this window. No "nub" is longer than 4 inches. Further adding to this complex theory, the ring gauges range from 56-66. The result is a range of smokes that have the same amount of tobacco as any Churchill or even Presidente. Unbelievably, they also smoke as long.
*Buy 3 get 1 FREE on ALL Oliva Product!!
*Buy a Box receive 10 points off and a limited edition Oliva Sampler including 7 of their award winning cigars!!

Scotty's Cigar Review - Oliva Serie V
The Oliva Serie V
For those of you that truly enjoy a full bodied cigar but not an IN-YOUR-FACE full bodied cigar,have I got the perfect one for you. The Oliva Serie V. the V is an ALL Nicaraguan Ligero leaf beauty that doesn't really flex it's muscles until you exhale the smoke through your nose. That is when you realize its power and richness.
Construction: very nicely rolled. It is a very solid cigar with a beautiful wrapper. It's so pretty I want my picture taken next to one to set on my desk.
Burn: Very nice and even burn with a strong white ash showing off its excellent aging.
Draw: I found the draw was close to perfect,with just the slightest resistance.
Taste: I didn't care for the very beginning much. It started off like a medium bodied smoke with , I thought , a bit too much pepper,but about an inch into it,it developed a
nutty,earthy flavor with a slight cedar sweetness. The notes of pepper remain through-out the smoke,but at a much more appreciative level. TASTY,Tasty,tasty!
Finish: This is one of those cigars that require a toothpick at the end to save your pinkies from burn scars. I smoked it right to the pick!
The Oliva Serie V is one terrific cigar! (My favorite Oliva so far).
I think it earned an outstanding "O O O O" smoke rings,and,if you put some of these in your favorite humidor and just leave them be,in the future you'll have a great smoke that rivals most of the Cuban cigars out there.
That's all for now and as always.........

Scotty's Cigar Review - Camacho Triple Maduro
Hi all. Today I'm writing about the Camacho Triple Maduro and I'll tell you right off the bat,it's one BAD@$$ cigar!!
Yes! What a great smoke...rolled on the thighs of virgins indeed.(funny how they never mention that the virgins are all about 120 years old and are still virgins because they were all too BUSY rolling cigars.)
Construction: These cigars are almost perfect. they are tight,and easy to light.It is built top to bottom with all honduran
maduro tobacco,filler,binder and wrapper.Whew!
Draw: The draw was absolutely flawless
Burn: The burn was nice and even from light to lights out. There were clouds of smoke that ruled the room I was smoking in.And the Triple Maduro burns slowwww.
Taste: It starts off very peppery but after a few minutes becomes smooth and creamy,tasting slightly woody and nutty.
add a touch of coffee and that distinctive maduro sweetness in the background and you have one relaxing smoke.
Aroma: Smells very nice. Not overpowering in any way.
Finish: For a full bodied cigar,the finish was medium. Not lingering on the taste buds for more than maybe 10 minutes or so.(I would have liked it to be a bit longer).
All in all I found it to be my FAVORITE Camaco,even topping the Coyolar Puro and that had to be a difficult task!
Even with a finish that could have been mmmmmmmslightly longer...I am going to give The Camacho Triple Maduro
a whopping "O O O O" smoke rings.(and I'm checking under the sofa cushions for enough change to buy a BOX)!
Well,that's it for now,and as always.....
Smoke 'em if ya got 'em!

NUB Cigars!!!
Oliva Cigar Co. and a former company sales rep have introduced a cigar innovation that is creating tremendous buzz. The rep is Sam Leccia, who covered Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania for Oliva since 2004. Sam came from the liquor industry where he was a partner in an award winning vodka.
After learning from the Oliva family how cigars are rolled in Esteli, Nicaragua, the Oliva family and Sam created “nubs”, which is a concept that seeks to deliver only that most enjoyable part of the cigar. The idea for the nubs came from the theory that a cigar finds its “sweet spot” at the 3 ½- 4 inch point. All “nub” cigars must exist within this window. No “nub” is longer than 4 inches. Further adding to this complex theory, the ring gauges range from 56-66. The result is a range of smokes that have the same amount of tobacco as any Churchill or even Presidente. Unbelievably, they also smoke as long.
Sam and Jose Oliva began experimenting with the concept in mid 2007. After hearing the sizes the no-nonsense Oliva Family was initially skeptical. The idea of a 4x60 or 4x66 sounded like a novelty to them. It was not until the family tested the concept and was able to see and smoke them that they understood that this was no novelty. They realized that there in fact was something that had not been done in this business. It is truly an innovation which has the ability to have one revisit wrappers that they may have had long since formed opinions about. Understanding that not everyone is in love with large ring gauges, you have to first grasp the theory of “nub” because in the world of “nubs” a 60 is not a large ring gauge. The only real way to understand it is to smoke one. The cigar starts at the sweet spot and gets better from there. The large ring gauge allows for a dense ash which insulates the cigar keeping it cool as you smoke. The large amount of smoke also allows you to really enjoy the complex flavors.
Sam’s excitement really grew on the Oliva’s as they began to experiment with the concept. After experimenting with hundreds of sizes and samples they felt ready to support the project. While the cigar is made and distributed by Oliva, it will be promoted by Sam Leccia.
The cigar will be launched in three wrappers: Habano, Cameroon, and Connecticut. There will be three sizes shared by all wrappers plus an additional size which is unique to each wrapper. The flavor range is from mild to full but always complex and hearty.
Now available at The Cigar Factory Outlet so stop in and smoke one today!!!

Scotty's Cigar Review - Isla De Cuba Cigars
Isla De Cuba Cigars
I have to admit,I was a skeptic. I did NOT think the Isla De Cuba cigars were going to be all that great. I LOVE it when I am proven wrong!
Construction: Very well built cigars. The natural Connecticut and the Connecticut broadleaf maduro are both beautifully wrapped. The maduro being the prettiest....all oily looking.
Draw: I have smoked a half dozen of these rascals and every one had an excellent draw. So much so as to make for a nice slow smoke.
Burn: Nice and even. The only time I needed an adjustment light was when I tended to power smoke it ( I couldn't help it...they are really good).
Taste: These sweethearts are smooooooooooth. They are medium strength with a nice
spice and black coffee taste and a touch of cedar. The maduro was just a notch higher in strength.
Aroma: Not overly pungent,but very pleasing to my shnozzola.
Finish: YES!! I told you I finished SIX of them! Actually the finish was not all that lengthy,but had a nice spicy linger to it.
All in all,I found it to be an extremely pleasant cigar for a mere $7.00 . I also think sitting in your favorite...(favourite for my Canadian friends)..humidor for a while will make these cigars go up a
good half smoke ring. On that note,I am giving it a PRE-sit-in-your-fav-humidor "O O O C" three and a half smoke rings!
That's all for now. Summer is coming,YAY! So as usual........

Scotty's Cigar Review - Ashton Aged Maduro
Today the reviewed cigar is a cigar smokers "Bentley". The Ashton Aged Maduro!
It is truly one of the finest maduro's available today. I may be very fond of strong cigars,but every now and then a special occasion comes along,and Ashton's are absolutely special!
CONSTRUCTION: Almost a work of art. Aged Connecticut Broadleaf tobacco wrapped flawlessly,all dark and oily looking. The ONLY thing missing was fire....and I had no problem supplying that!
BURN: It's burn was exactly like it's construction. Flawless.No re-lights needed. A nice even burn from start to stop.
DRAW: It never ceases to amaze me how a great cigar can be packed tightly with all of that fine tobacco,yet the sensation you get is much like drawing on an empty tube. A swimming snorkel should have a draw this good!
TASTE: With all of the hard core strength cigars I smoke,I have to admit it took a minute to relate to the almost delicate complexities of this cigar. Mild to medium in strength,this cigar just has this remarkable,
slightly sweet,woody,spicy almost cocoa like flavor. It has relaxation qualities that would seem to make Valium a part of the caffeine family.
AROMA: This smoke is very gentle on the nose. I would recommend one of these in a situation that called for "odor discretion". Chances are good that even people that HATE cigar smoke wouldn't have much to complain about. It's just a nice natural aroma.......about as intrusive as the smell of a toasty wood fire on a cold day.
FINISH: Its finish is much like its start. Mild but complex.
There are only a few cigars out there that really deserve top ratings( I mean TOP too)!
The ASHTON AGED MADURO gets all FIVE!! "O O O O O" smoke rings.
Well,that's it for now......and as always...
SMOKE 'EM IF YA GOT 'EM!
Scotty Mac
P.S. I would like to give Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard a salute and a handshake for his donation of 1,500 cigars confiscated in a drug raid to our troops overseas!
A great job and a great gesture in my book,Sir!
