I wonder how well Cohiba would do without the x3 and x5 packs?

I've always thought it would be nice to see more five packs on the market.

I've always bought Cohiba as full boxes, mainly due to them needing to sit for a few years.

I do think a lot of people buy Cohiba though to be seen to smoke the 'premium' brand, lots of people out there with loads of cash and not much knowledge of cigars.

Interesting thought though Tipp. I've never been tempted to buy three packs, if they were five packs that would tempt me a little more.

i think the little boxes look smart. I do think a lot of cohibas must be sold in the 3 packs, personally I would like to see more cohiba in 3 packs and tubos

Just an idle thought. I like most of the Cohiba vitola, but other than Secretos have never really been flush enough to justify the cost of a box and have always relied on the packs for Lanceros, CoEsp, Siglo IV etc.

The packs are one of the first things you spot in humidors at almost every airport outside of the USA, so it's a good bet loads are sold ..... obviously there are loads of people who can afford to buy Esplendidos by the shedload, I've never even smoked one .... I don't think Cohiba would vanish without the packs ? and the packs are great as tasters and habit changers ? but for me they are Cohiba, without them my only route into the brand would be through singles.

Thoughts?
