Anyone else heard a rumor about cigar shipments drying up because of labor unrest in the Dominican Republic? I heard it yesterday.

No but I heard of my cigars having beetles because they sit on a hot truck all weekend.

double ouch. However, IMO the best cigars lately are from Nicaragua and Honduras anyway. A real shame about jamaica though, hope the same doesn't happen in the DR. Although with the additional production shift to the DR, big tobacco can't afford to let it go south there.
