warren516 Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 From the Habanos pages......sounds like a great marca, so this must be why they discontinued most sizes!!! Makes absolutely no sense to me. “La Gloria Cubana” is considered a gem of the Habano brands. Though quite unknown, it treasures a longstanding history that started back in 1885 and its name speaks volumes of the brand’s origin. Its vitola stock is completely rolled by hand and some of its top features include excellent scent, strength and taste that, coupled with an elegant presentation, make these Habanos an exclusive product that boasts a selective group of followers among both smokers and connoisseurs.
khomeinist Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 The lackluster sales (and promotion) of this brand have baffled me for years. One of the truly interesting flavor profiles.... MDO #1 in my top 10 for sure.....
cigcars Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 **Well, hell, if they offered the Medalle' d'Oro No. 2 I'D be buying it more, like I did by the box in yesteryear!!
LeafLover Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I'm stupid for not buying a few more boxes of the d'or #1's when I had a chance.
MrGlass Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Of course they are going to hype it up. Nobody ever says that something they sell is crap and don't bother. Well, except for this guy: http://www.cigar-czar.com/store/cart.php?target=product&product_id=3486&category_id=714
bstarrs Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I just cannot believe they cut the Tainos, a ten pack churchill in a classic Cuban marca and they just couldn't deal with keeping it going. Ridiculous...

warren516 Posted March 1, 2012 Author Posted March 1, 2012 "Selective group of followers"...Not enough sales to warrant keeping it around as was mentioned in the post above. It is a business after all. This is why they just unveiled an "Exclusive Edition of “La Gloria Cubana” BELUX No. 1 Habano in Belgium", so the selective group of followers can buy it. Only 3500 boxes of 10 were made.
