I know they have over a thousand pounds of the stuff, but 36 dollars a pound seems pretty cheep for something properlly cured and delicious over 15 years....It will sell for $35.95 a pound, more at specialty shops... ...“It’s like a good Scotch, the people that like it and know it are willing to pay the price”...
People can grow and cure that much bud in a fraction of that time, and sell if for more than 100 times the profit...
Cheese just needs to be criminalized.“We get people who say, ‘Why is it so expensive?’” Monteleone said, “and we say, ‘If you put your money in the bank 15 years ago, what kind of return would you expect?’ That kind of shuts them up.”
