What, Cuba run out of wood? Had to resort to putting a clasp on a Monte 2 10ct box?

[nikesupremedunk]

Wouldn't mind trying one of these.

[Lotusguy]

Interestingly, Monte Petit Tubos 10er boxes also have a clasp. First time I ever saw that on a dress box was on the PL Regalias De Londres UK RE.

Very good looking cigars,i bet they smoke very well too.Available end of October.

These don't taste like Grand Edmundos to me...it's not as plain. The GE were for sure Montecristo crowdpleasers...but they weren't complex or rich. It was a good cigar, but I always finished one thinking it was seriously missing something.

These have more richness to them. Profoundly. The cigar is intense. To make it simple without making it a review, I'd say it has the flavors and strength of the D (for those who have had, I don't think these are quite ready still), but with a depth and finesse of the Maravilla #1. Very, very strong for a Montecristo. I believe these will be a hit.

55 ring gauge? How long until we reach 60 ring gauge?

[seanbeer]

not gonna buy purely based on the RG! hate these RG

[PigFish]

Habanos... we build a better box!

[maverickdrinker]

I like'em...

[nick17]

definitely would not mind picking a box up if the price is right

[Hamlon]

I thought it was gonna be RG52 due to the name.. No longer interested in a box. Might do a split just for the sake of it, though.

[Ophidion]

I have yet to hear about the price for a box or per stick. Until then I will hold off on getting my hopes up that it will be reasonably priced. If they are over 20/stick I will go ahead and just invest that money into some ESP 2s.

Oh... hell yes! Now this is connoisseur thinking!!! -Piggy

[MC4]

Wonder how much they'll go for?

[Smallclub]

Announced at €190/box of 10 in Belgium. About US$25 per cigar…

Availability: end of October.

[Ophidion]

Probably going to pass unless someone does a split with me. For 250 I can get 25 monte ESP 2 or another box or RACF or a myriad of other sticks that I need to stock up on at some point.

I'm wondering how long before we reach 70.

Couldnt agree more.

[seanbeer]

Coming in 2014: The Montecristo Nub Deluxe in 74 x 3" format

[khomeinist]

Am looking forward to the La Gloria in the tuna can vitola.

For the most exclusive and discerning consumer.

[orangedog]

Hoping for grey market =<$200. If so, will stock up. Big time.

[Quantim0]

I'm wondering how long before we reach 70.

There are a bunch of cigars by relatively large NC brands that are 7x70.

I'm disappointed Habanos seems to be going down the same path the last few years.

[ramon_cojones]

LOL @ 55 gauge
