First Lady Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 so LE for this year will be here next year and next years releases for 2013... that is pretty much what you are saying Rob
finecigar Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Oh... Sounds like some pretty nice releases for 2012 . I'll look forward to those Cohiba Piramides extra
mkz Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Thanks for the info Rob! IMO most of these sound just as dull as always when it comes to new releases/RE/LE. Except for one thing: Rafael Gonzalez Marquez: Perlas 40 x 102 mm in boxes of 25’s and carton packs of 5’s, displays of 25’s. Now that is a seriously good release. Lisa! Sign me up for two boxes to start with!
baragh Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Oh man I'm excited for this RG Perla, half coronas are my go-to vitola
CaptainQuintero Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Woohoo Quintero robusto! lol Don't see the point in the R&J petit churchil, isn't it just the Short churhcill with 2cm lopped off?
Lotusguy Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 SCDLH Jar and RG Perlas - nice! Prez, any word on what happened to the HdM Double Epicure that was intended for travel retail??
riazp Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Great Info Rob! funny how nothing is mentioned for the 2011 RE's lol
bstarrs Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 RG Perlas sound like a great idea, as do c&c Quintero Robustos. But before I get excited I just want to see this years le's and new releases, I really want the RA Allones Extras and the Upmann Half Coronas.
