To You, What Constitutes A "Short Run" Or "Limited Edition"?

I voted 2500. I think there's a difference between the 1 off
productions some cigar makers do for a specific store... 4 example Viaje just did a 1 store production of Samurai Platino for Burn Cigars here. I wouldn't count that in the limited edition category. 4 me a limited edition has a small but wide release. Your store may only be able to get 1 or 2 boxes. JD did something similar with the feral flying pigs. Obviously it's better if it's a really good cigar, but simple fact that they are relatively tough to get adds to the "specialness" of it. If I could get the FFP's all the time, everywhere, I'd probably smoke more of them but I wouldn't consider them necessarily special.

Just my 2¢
