melies Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I just found an old post from The Pres back in January 2006 about the current production of Habanos S.A. and seeing the number of deletions of some of the best cigars in the line just put into perspective what a lot of you are saying about the strange and horrible decisions they have been making as of late. This is the complete list of 2006 production as posted by the Pres over here: http://www.friendsofhabanos.com/forum/inde...amp;hl=majestic Notable mentions all the Partagas SDC, almost all of the Diplomaticos, half of QUAI D'ORSAY, all of ERDM except Choix supreme, and all of Los Status de luxe (don't know if they were any good, but I always liked the brand name ) BOL�VAR Belicosos Finos Bol�var Tubos No.1 Bol�var Tubos No.2 Bol�var Tubos No.3 Bonitas Coronas Coronas Extra Coronas Gigantes Coronas Junior Gold Medal Inmensas Petit Coronas Royal Coronas CABA�AS Belvederes COH�BA Coh�ba Pir�mides (L.E. 2006) Coronas Especiales Espl�ndidos Robusto Exquisitos Lanceros Panetelas Siglo I Siglo II Siglo II (tube) Siglo III Siglo IV Siglo V Siglo VI Siglo VI (tube) CUABA Diademas Distinguidos Divinos Exclusivos Generosos Salomones Tradicionales DIPLOM�TICOS Diplom�ticos No.1 Diplom�ticos No.2 Diplom�ticos No.3 Diplom�ticos No.4 Diplom�ticos No.5 FLOR DE CANO, LA Petit Coronas Selectos FONSECA Cadetes Cosacos Delicias Fonseca No.1 GUANTANAMERA Compays Cristales (tube) D�cimos Puritos GLORIA CUBANA, LA Medaille d'Or No.1 Medaille d'Or No.2 Medaille d'Or No.3 Medaille d'Or No.4 Ta�nos H.

cigcars Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 *One: Boy are you PATIENT to put ALL this stuff down at once like this!! Second: The Los Statos DeLuxe holds a special place of nostalgia in my heart because this was the first Cuban cigar I was able to find and acquire on my own. I have since found a site that offered a few for 5 box and singles. I acquired the 5 and still have about one or two left in my humidor just for comfort and memories sake They are also not bad little machine bunched cigars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeafLover Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Wondering where a lot of these original members who replied to this '06 post are. Would be interesting to hear their perceptions on habanos now vs. 6 years ago. (Not that 6 years is a very long time but in terms of cigar years, there must have been hundreds if not thousands of cigars smoked by them in that time) Sorry, not trying to hijack this thread.

If quality is a bell curve then 06-10 would be skewed to the right (quality) 99-05 to the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they have also come with things that I love, (those Partagas P1 from the jar are something else IMHO) so not everything is bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
