Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry. From my local LCdH Amsterdam and I believe Knokke confirmed it. Well I still have two cabinets so those will last me some time.

RijkdeGooier Posted September 24, 2014 Author Posted September 24, 2014 This is just what I heard mind you. Cuba being Cuba they could just be on hold for now, given the wrapper crisis. Maybe others know more? Rob any news on this? 1

I just figured they were on hold while other more reasonably priced cigars are rolled out. But like you said, Cuba being Cuba anything is possible.
Maplepie Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Who remembers those Sancho Panza Sanchos?? that preembarg Corona we had, Michel? One that tasted like those? Damn are both good. Over a Montecristo A anyday. Wonder what gray market prices for Sanchos are nowadays. Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry. 1

I actually snorted out loud reading this! I may be the only #3 lover here My list is #3 - Esp #2 - Esp #2 - petit E Homework for everyone this week is buy a handful of #3 and smoke them!
Puros Y Vino Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 To me, the Monte PE always outshines the other offerings. The Eps No 1's and then Monte A's are not too far behind. Hate to see the Monte A go. Confirmed? 2
RijkdeGooier Posted September 24, 2014 Author Posted September 24, 2014 My latest Sanchos were a 98 box at a reasonable price 160 dollars or thereabouts. But I ain't selling
Maplepie Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Really!?! Only 16? Damn that's not much at all, then. Rather stock up on those, myself. Sent by the Enigma on BlackBerry.

tjohn7 Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 From what I can gather on different sites, I don't see mention of a discontinuation. However, I am not "in the know" and would love to hear what Rob has to say about this.
... Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 Sad stuff if it has been chopped. I was quite interested in the vitola but hadn't had time yet to buy any

Being single allows one to run priorities in a very customized way I enjoy the frequent DC and the occasional Diademas or other longish vitolas... 1

That's about the price in France, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, etc. Sanchos and Monte A don't sell, they will be available for years… 1

I recall seeing a box or two in CDG's Duty free with 2001 box codes. That was 3 years ago.
