The Cigar Authority comes to you live from the Toscano Cigar Sound Stage and this week we ask the question, is this the end of flavored cigars in the United States.

Is it good or is it bad? Tune in and light up as we fire up Acid Amigos from the Care Package in the first hour.
In the second hour we fire up another flavored cigar, Rocky Patel Java as we continue the discussion and look at when the law on flavors began and ask if this segment of the cigar industry can be saved.
We will have this and all the usual suspects including Versus, Offer of the Day, Cigar News and a peek into the Asylum.
