3d ago00:56:41Tap to summarizeComing to you from the JRE Tobacco Aladino Studios, Nick discusses a topic that has been popping up more and more this year, Track and Trace.

Nick discusses what it is, why it's in place, some of the pros and cons for it, and whether or not we're likely to see it in the United States anytime soon.

It's a topic consumers may not be aware of but should be, because it could result in higher cigar prices. But what doesn't these days...
