On a 112 day cruise I neglected to take enough cigars. (One guy with 14 previous world cruises brought 900 and almost ran out. Smoked a lot more than I did with my 15.) Bought some Royal Barbados at $10 a stick. Last time I was here they were a pretty good smoke.
Attempted to buy cigars in Sydney, Australia. We were in on a Saturday and I attempted to buy some at Nathan's which was right downtown but in a moment of senility didn't realize he was Jewish. Iron gate on the door. Finally got to Bogart's (very difficult to find.) Cigars are expensive, they have an 80% tax on tobacco in Australia. Manage to pick up ten Nicaraguans (brand unknown but nice smokes) for about $30 a stick.
Shipboard Cubans, #3 Fuentes were about $10 a stick. These held me to Hong Kong. Everything supposed to be cheaper there. Nice Habanos smoke shop at the Shoreham in Kowloon with Hoya de Monterrey Churchills and Monticristo #2s going for about $27 a stick.
Next stop Piraeus, Greece and the duty free shop had Monticristo #3s at $7 a stick. While in Madeira, Portugal looked into the duty free shop there and they had Cohibas at$25 a stick. All were great smokes but the lesson was "take enough cigars to last you!"
