ChanceSchmerr Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Hello everyone, I know i've not kept up with my Cigar Journal - I Will update as soon as I can - as you can imagine, it's been quite an eventful last month or so on our mission in the Med! I just wanted to pass on a quick word regarding the Italian RE's that I'm sure everyone is wondering about, the La Escepcion Selectos Finos. I was in Catania, Sicily yesterday while my ship was in port for a fuelling stop, and managed to get up to a "Tabacci" that specialized in Habanos. I asked about the La Escepcions and the proprietor told me that they hadn't been released yet, and that he was expecting them in December. I just hope I will get a chance to visit Italy again in December! So there you go, if anyone was wondering! I was able to get a hold of a few RE Punch Superfinos from 2007 - a very fine RE, one of the best Punches I've ever had! Cheers all!
Lotusguy Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Being a long-and-skinny fan, I would LOVE to score some of these when they come out!
headstand Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Update or no, it is always good to hear from you CS. Now get cracking on the journal update man... Stay safe.
bassman Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 If they're out when you return, grab all you can. Italian export laws are tough. Stay safe.

SethG Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 I'm still waiting for my Punch Diademas from Italy....

Mr. Japan Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 We are all hoping they will be soon out. On Italian importers Catalogue they are already listed.
CigarCanuck Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 Great to hear from you, Stay safe and we'll see you when you come home...
thechenman Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 Wonder what a box of these babies will be selling for?
dB69 Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 I'd like to have these also, but I'd rather buy a box of Party SdC#2 AND a box of Shorts with the same amount of money, unless they are something like supernatural-special-hyper-delicious cigars. Have to try one if possible though.
ChanceSchmerr Posted November 16, 2011 Author Posted November 16, 2011 Thanks fellas, I'll do all I can to pick some of these up if they are out by the time I return to Italy! As for costing - the Italian importers Diadema have the price listed in their catalogue, viewable at http://www.diademaspa.it/index.php . They ain't gonna be cheap...

Smallclub Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 As for costing - … They ain't gonna be cheap... I've heard of a price of 325 €uros (± 438 US$), not exactly cheap for a parejo…
Lotusguy Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 I am in for a split!! My colleague is from Italy and he imports a lot of stuff - maybe I can ask him if he can source a box or two...
