"Status symbol" "$150,000 a box"? Oi vai! This makes me think of idiots who judge something solely based on a price tag.

Granted... There are several Gurkhas that I have tried and enjoyed (yeah, I know, I'm pretty much the only one) but they are FAR from Luxury Ultra-Premium Hoi Polloi sticks. Talk about advertising-malfeasance. Don't get me wrong, they have several good cigars... but not all of them are that great and most are NOT worth the price tag. They also aren't that "rare" and "exclusive."

....and I won't even address the consistency statement. Unless by consistent they mean consistently inconsistent.
