While I am not saying that the hard number is incorrect, I personally have never heard any official number attached to what defines a boutique cigar or boutique maker.
The most common traits often found among those manufacturers and makers considered boutique is being very unique and small, but even this sometimes comes into question.

Yes. Boutique is simply a cigar made in small numbers. It adds a bit of a "hard to get" quality to the cigar. Small batches of cigars made by small companies are usually labeled boutique, while small batches of cigars made by large companies are often called "limited."
