Alaska is 99% on wholesale price per stick, that 75% is the base that they add more too but what they add isn't a tax. They effectively doube the cost of any cigar. And don't forget shipping is always more money too. USPS is too slow and its too cold so Next Day Air is only option. When a Macanudo Robusto costs $9 you know you are in trouble. And this was before SCHIP. Lived there for 6 years and bought maybe 12 cigars tops.
