I haven't seen anything relating to cigars and the pandemic. Have you read anything as far as production, sales, growing issues in relation to COVID-19 and how it's effecting the industry?

I listened or read somewhere, and I believe it was with Matt Booth of Room 101, who's factory had multiple shutdowns and it's effect on his business and the trickling down to B&Ms. He can't do in-store events, meet-n-greets, so the in-person sales push has been hit hard and is pretty much dead. As I write this - It may have been one of these podcast episodes:

I just watched a couple Cigar Authority podcasts on BoobTube and both suggested next year's prices will increase due to Covid. Combo of slowed production at the factories due to Covid workplace rules and increased demand (people smoking more).
