There will be lots of new aromas(香味)at the Rocky Gap Music Festival this weekend. (这个周末在罗基加普音乐节上将会有很多种新的香味。) Those aromas will come from cigars - lots of cigars. The organizers of this year's festival decided to have a cigar bar at Rocky Gap after they saw the success of cigar bars at other music festivals. Lee Schwartz is the owner of a cigar store in Cumberland, Maryland. The festival organizers asked him if he would sell his cigars at the Rocky Gap festival. Schwartz thought it was a good idea.
A larger number of people are now smoking cigars. There has been a huge increase in the number of people who smoke cigars. According to Schwartz, “the number of cigar smokers has exploded. International cigar sales have increased by 500 percent in the last three years.”
Schwartz said that his store sells 70 different cigar brands. “Three years ago,” he said, “we sold about 150 cigars a month in my shop. Now that they are so popular, we sell about 450 a month.” There is a lot of demand for good, imported cigars. Schwartz said he gets his cigars from importers, manufacturers, and sales representatives.
“Cigars became very popular a few years ago. But there was not enough supply to meet the demand, because it can take up to five years to produce a good, aged cigar,” Schwartz said. During the last few months, more cigars have become available. They are getting easier to find and buy now. In fact, cigar bars are opening all over the country. Both men and women enjoy cigars. Schwartz said that 75 percent of imported cigar manufacturers are Hispanic. “I found out,” he said, “that to conduct business, I'm going to have to learn a second language.”
