Crux Cigars has announced that it will increase prices across its portfolio of cigars next week.

According to the company, the changes amount to an average of 8.26 percent. The new pricing will take effect on Feb. 15, 2023.

It is widely expected that most cigar companies will be increasing prices in or around early 2023, most of which are likely to be announced in the first quarter of the year as that is when most companies traditionally make these announcements. Reasons for these increases include increased costs for tobacco and packaging, increased competition for labor, general inflation, and mirroring competitors’ price adjustments.
