Does anyone know what these were going for when they were available? This is the Forbidden X Cigar in a Bottle, infused with alcohol, in a box from 2005?

I don't remember seeing them, so I can't recall. I found a B&M who still has them and am curious as to what people paid or what these were going for.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
 
According to vitolas.net, they're re-released this year, so it may be those you see. MSRP is listed at $300. I believe MSRP was $250 for the first go-round. I was looking everywhere for one, just never found it.
 
Forget it. I went to Moki's site, searched for it, found the page, copied the link at the bottom of the page, under "URL", tried to add it here and it won't work.

OK, I don't know what just happened with that link.

Did you take the link from the bottom of the page, or from the browser bar? I know Moki has mentioned before you should take it from the bottom of the page.

Edit: OK, I see you took it from the bottom. I took mine from the bottom too, but for whatever reason it worked...
 
I think what happened is I tried to highlight the link at the bottom of the page and copy it, but for whatever reason it was not copying correctly. Instead I had to right click and choose "copy link location".
 
Cigar in the Bottle was released last year in Las Vegas during the RTDA show. Locally in Vegas it retails for $300/bottle. It is rare to say because it's not carried everywhere as of yet. The cigar within the product is NOT infused, but does have a hint of apple flavor to it as Carlito takes the OpusX tobacco and places it in empty barrels of Calvados for a minimum of 45 days. The tobacco absorbs the alcohol left in the oak barrels.

More information can be found here...Cigar in the Bottle.
 
I just called one of the retailers listed in NY, and they told me they can't get it because of NY law not allowing cigas and alcohol packaged together. That sucks.
 
I have already pointed a couple of folks to missionliquor.com in Pasadena, Ca I believe it is going for $249.99. I have been there personally they have a good selection of all types of booze and cigars too.

I couldn't find it on their site. Do you know if they still have it up?
 
I have seen these around plenty and always for $300 or more. I was going to buy one but then life took a shit and I forgot all about it. I have not looked for them for a while. One guy offered me a whole case but he did not offer enough of a discount so I turned him down. I wonder if I should call him again.
