Bill Summary
Relative to excise on cigars and smoking tobacco. Revenue.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing laws to create a new license for "retail tobacconists" - cigar retailers who operate an on-site humidor and generate at least 80% of their revenue from tobacco products. It allows these retailers to import, manufacture, and sell cigars and smoking tobacco without being considered a "cigar distributor." The bill also updates the definition of "retail tobacco store" to include those with a retail tobacconist license. This provides these specialized cigar retailers with certain exemptions, such as allowing them to permit non-cigarette tobacco smoking on the premises.
