Explain TAA cigars to me

[Old Smokey]

I have seen them mentioned, but I do t know what they are. I have seen then mentioned by various brands. Are they special edition smokes? What does TAA stand for? Are they generally special and something worth seeking out? I know I could probably google it and do some searching, but we need some new threads. Throw me a bone!

TAA

[Demuths1770]

TAA is the Tobacconists' Association of America. The TAA sticks are limited run sticks for retailers who are members of the Tobacconists Association of America

[AlohaTobacco]

They are sticks made to generate business toward stores that are a part of the Tobacconists' Association of America. Each participating brand has a different take on what they offer. New blend (Tatuaje, Asylum, Crowned Heads, Nat Sherman, LFD), special size (VSG Robusto Especial, Acid, Alec Bradley, Jamie Garcia, Padron 1964, Rocky Patel, Casa Magna) or a slight change like the La Antiqudad with a different wrapper.

There are a lot of qualifications/obligations to become and stay a TAA member shop, so there aren't many of them
