Why $29 for a truffle?

The first reason why one of these truffles cost more than a tank of gas for some people around the country, is that Swedish Chocolatier, Emanuel Andrén spends 2 days making each batch of these flawless little gems by hand.

But check out the second reason:

Fillings for these truffles include prized and outrageous ingredients such as Laphroaig Scotch whisky, cloudberries and even cigars. Yeah CIGARS!

The ones shown here in a white chocolate shell are filled with Appleton Estate 10-year-old rum, Zino Platnium cigar, Tabasco, salt, and dark chocolate. Now thats a mouthful, would you drop a more than a dub for these bad boys?
