Effective 7/1/17 the California Board of Equalization requires the provision of a 65.08% tobacco excise tax on the wholesale cost of all tobacco products sold in California. As a result, for those California purchasers, there will be an additional tax of only 20% added to the sales tax portion of each sale, to account for this tobacco excise tax. This will only apply to purchases in the State of California. Thank you for your understanding and for being a Humble customer.
