This Revised Final Amendment to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 14D-1 (as
heretofore amended and as further amended by this Revised Final Amendment, the
"Statement") relates to the offer by Dorsay Acquisition Corp. ("Purchaser"), a
corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and
a wholly owned subsidiary of Societe Nationale d'Exploitation Industrielle des
Tabacs et Allumettes ("Seita"), a corporation organized and existing under the
laws of France ("Parent"), to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Class
A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Shares"), and Class B
Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class B Shares", and together
with the Class A Shares, the "Shares"), of Consolidated Cigar Holdings Inc., a
corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware
(the "Company"), at a price of $17.85 per Share, net to the seller in cash
(subject to applicable withholding of taxes), without interest, upon the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in Purchaser's Offer to Purchase,
dated December 22, 1998 (as heretofore amended, the "Offer to Purchase"), and
in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or
supplements thereto, collectively constitute the "Offer"), copies of which
were filed with the Statement as Exhibits (a)(1) and (a)(2), respectively. This 
Amendment constitutes the revised final amendment to the Statement. Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in
the Statement.
 
Item 5. Purpose of the Tender Off and Plans or Proposals of the Bidder

 
  Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented by replacing the information
provided in Item 5 of the Final Amendment to the Statement, dated January 22,
1999, with the following:

  The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Thursday, January
21, 1999. On Friday, January 22, 1999, Purchaser accepted for payment and paid
for all the Shares validly tendered in the Offer and not withdrawn, representing
approximately 99% of the outstanding Shares. Following the payment for shares
tendered pursuant to the Offer, all the members of the Board of Directors of the
Company who served as such prior to the expiration of the Offer, except for Theo
W. Folz, resigned. On January 22, 1999, Parent also completed the Merger
pursuant to the "short form" merger provisions of Section 253 of Delaware Law.
As a result of the Merger, the Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent,
and, following the Merger, the Board of Directors of the Company now consists of
Jean-Dominique Comolli, Eric Albrand, Charles Lebeau and Theo W. Folz.
