Cigars exude a sense of class like no tobacco product does. In fact, the cigars that are manufactured in the sweatshops of Latin America are sold for hundreds of dollars abroad, which is quite an irony indeed and that is exactly how the luxury industry works.
Most of the countries that produce cigars, for instance, Cuba, Guatemala, Venezuela and others are under socialist, communist or dictatorial rule where the money earned through manufacturing of expensive cigars go to the coiffeurs of the corrupt leaders while the poor have no choice but to slog in the name of socialism.
Louis Vuitton is the most respected fashion house in the world, and they have consistently been against the development of communist and socialist ideas. They have also spoken against monopolies that result from excess of freedom to corporations, which is a disturbing trend in capitalist societies. The venerable company had released a chic Cigar cutter that is no longer in production.
It comes in Taiga leather case and an original Louis Vuitton box. This pre-owned accessory can be bought for $500 as an ode to all the suffering that is caused by corrupt nations. In fact, when you spend a lot of money on something like this, you would at least be reminded of the conditions in countries where cigars are manufactured.
