Gary, you know to always shoot me a line when you are in town and I will come out if possible!

Absolutely but I am only in one night and not sure of my work commitments yet.

Sure it would be a sad thing if they discontinue vitolas I like - but dont see there has to be a strict correlation between yearly discontinuation and a few el's released each year - but what do I know

i have a few boxes of allones mille fleurs ... they are remarkably similar in taste to the el's that came out in '00 '01 '02 .

allones mille fleurs ( at 40$ a box ) have been discontinued ... any idea what might have happened to that leaf ???

Retro cool is something like the RA Celestiales Finos. Not too expensive. Aged nicely. Not a vitola you see everyday.

Retro nonsense is this release. Are these cigars going to have those brutal NC chocodirt wrappers that plague most of the recent constituents of this ill-conceived line?

My bad. Let us admire the glass. Half-filled with Kool-aid.....

OH YEAH!!!!!

"Leaf"? The RA Mille Fleur was a machine made, short filler cigar.

btw I have smoked dozens of this cigar (one of best Q/P ratio in France with the Gispert Habanera) and haven't find the slightest similarity with ELs from '00, '01, '02.

I will try one, but doubt it will be my every-day stick

Nothin' personal folks, just business...

I picked up two singles yesterday (along with the PL Picadores, HDM New Release and the Vegueros). I will give theme a fair shot.

After seeing this price, I am raising my guess for the expected price for the RA898 RE to 24 euros/stick

respectfully

other than taste ... i agree ... no similarity to the early el's .

havent quite smoked a dozen boxes (yet) ... they look like they were rolled by an 8 year old and burn at a 45 degree angle but i swear to god they taste just like the '01 ('02 actually) d3's ... a bit fainter in strength tho .
