price increases

Not every cigar is getting an increase, while the biggest increases are 75 cents per cigar.

Cost increases throughout the cigar making process are driving the need for the company to raise its prices.

Neanderthal prices will increase by just 3.85 percent on average while Intemperance VO 1920 is going up by more than 8 percent.

The January 2024 price increase will affect most of the company’s premium cigars, with the lone exception being the Villiger 1888 Nicaragua.

Effective Jan. 15, 2024, Oliva’s lines will increase by either 5 percent or 7 percent.

Rising operational and industry-related costs have necessitated the increase.

Increased manufacturing costs are to blame for the increase.

The increase ranges from a dime to a quarter per cigar.

Like its 2023 price increases, Drew Estate says the new pricing amounts to a 4.5 percent increase.

The decision was driven by a response to inflation and rising costs.

The company says this is the first price increase for the standard 60-gram packs since 2005.
