Please help me with my math: 30% = 90 cents / box? Not sure what kind you buy but that amounts to about $1.20 per cigar on what I currently purchase unless there is a cap that I did not see mentioned which is entirely possible. If 90 cents/box you are correct it does not mater much.

Also FL has -0- Tax on Cigars so not quite sure how PA would still be the lowest. Several other states have less than 30% also.
