Habano Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Just a shame the same year Partagas get a GR they lose 3 production cigars from their range! What three is Partagas losing? I don't think anything has been official, but there has been some rumors floating around.
AlohaStyle Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 That list only shows the Party Lusi and 898 as 10-count boxes.
Habano Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 That list only shows the Party Lusi and 898 as 10-count boxes. Am I blind? Where do you see 898's anywhere in the screenshot that was posted? Lol.
AlohaStyle Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I looked at the full list, not the screenshot.
Habano Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I looked at the full list, not the screenshot. Now that makes sense. Glad I'm not losing my mind.
khomeinist Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I dunno about this 898 thing. Didn't somebody talk to an official who laughed off the discontinuation rumor? Would be an insane loss to the catalog. Punch EL sorta interesting. Shame how all the ELs have the same profile though..... generally speaking.
sabourin Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 can't wait to grab some of those GR Lucis. Hoyo should be interesting! Anyone know the REs for Asia, Switzerland and UK?
Smallclub Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 42 euro for the Gran Reserva is expensive IMHO. This is insane. I can see these staying ad vitam æternam on the shelves in Italy…
Scdalak Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I think the news that it would be a Lusi has been out for a long time now. Although it could have just been an unsubstantiated rumour that turned out to be correct. Punch EL is interesting and not expected or regular as it is not one of the big 6. And if the RyJ is anything like the Duke, I will be enjoying those! I have the feeling it will be exactly like the Duke, not very oringal of them, (same cigar different package) but not a bad thing either, Dukes IMHO were fantastic cherry bombs..... i still have a few boxes..
dangolf18 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 42 euros for a grand reserva seems like a good deal to me....around the same price I saw the Monte 2 gr for sale in Europe.
PigFish Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Death of the Habanos, one cigar line at a time! Humbug!! -Piggy
Scdalak Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 They are terrible cigars. Sell them to me. I belive a returned favor is in order here.....
maverickdrinker Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 can't wait to grab some of those GR Lucis. Hoyo should be interesting! Anyone know the REs for Asia, Switzerland and UK? No REs have been announced yet from what I can tell. They are still catching up, releasing 2011 and 2012 REs. LOL
LGC Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 I'm glad to see the prices and formats coming out... since I don't have the coin to burn on cigars. I don't feel left out on anything these days
zmancbr Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Lazy bastards. I want my ninfas. AMEN to that Brother!

jedipastor Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 The Duke was an amazing cigar, I've 2 boxes sleeping at the moment and hunting high and low for more! The idea of a slightly thinner and longer Duke has me excited...shame it'll be the end of the year before we see them (well unless you're going to the festival and get a sample but I find the flavours can balance out a lot in the 6 or so months between festival and retail release) I never heard the rumours about the Lusi, I'm obviously not as well connected as you Shlomo I love the Duke as well (2 left ... /sigh), but is there any reason to think this will be similar?
MattW Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Thanks for the info Dara! As a big fan of Romeo and Hoyo I'm looking forward to those two ELs!
Dara Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 I love the Duke as well (2 left ... /sigh), but is there any reason to think this will be similar? Sadly, I don't think they'll ever recreate the magic that was the Duke...think it had something to do with the alignment of the stars etc
polarbear Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 EL punch should be interesting Im looking forward to the EL RyJ as well. I've heard nothing but good things about the Duke but sadly missed the boat on them Not too sure how I feel about the Gran Reserve cigars though. I have trouble seeing how a cigar could be worth upwards of $100aud but I guess if I had the cash I'd be buying a box anyway
