- Many cigar cases do not fit 60 gauge cigars (the holders are too small)

Earlier this year, we had a minor set back where our box manufacturer in the Dominican Republic burned to the ground. We contracted with a local manufacturer here in Minnesota to bridge the gap until they could be back up and running.

It took a while, however, they are now back in stock. Check the websit in a few days to see the finished product.

Thanks
