The price of a cigar mostly depends on the type of tobacco, the factory it is made in, and most importantly, its annual production. Similar to vintage wines, some cigar brands only release several thousand cigars a year. This limited distribution often creates an air of excitement around a cigar and can drive up the price. Some of the best known super premium small batch cigars are the Arturo Fuente God of Fire, Perdomo Edicion de Silvio and of course, Gurkha His Majesty's Reserve which retails for $15,000.00 per box.
