Acording to Hunters & Frankau they will be available "very soon". 53x153 mm Boxes of 10 Price not revealed

Perfect! Cause y'know, the last UK RE priced like that (Punch Gold Medals) flew off the shelves.....oh wait...

That's the easiest pass of the year

Cool, so they should be available for $160. sneaky.gif

I sure hope so... however, if the Punch RE was any indication, they won't be quite so cheap duty-free.

382.7586 U.S. dollars

305.420118 Euros

439.270787 Australian dollars

From Google.

And yes, I have nothing to do at the moment.

Wow. Love PL but wow.

Just bought three boxes for some buddies and I. So much for spending more on regular production.

Either way, I'll be taking out a student loan to go deep on these based on the track record of the past two Pl uk releases.

One can think of much worse things, when it comes to spending the student loan lol3.gif

Have to say I really enjoyed the one I tried at the London herf yesterday. Construction was impeccable and flavour profile developed over the course of the cigar. Pricing aside, they're a good bet to put away for a sleep on that showing.

Agreed mate, I enjoyed mine immensely. Sadly had to leave the last third as i needed to head home but it was an excellent cigar and I am tempted to buy a box even at that price. I would probably only smoke them on high days and holidays anyway so a box of 10 will last me a good few years!

So I smoked one last night. The flavors were dead straight intense sweet PL it reminded me of an amped up encantos, but no quite as good as the PL rdl. With that said I could not get the damn thing to burn straight. I had to do a ton of touchups, but when the ash fell it had a perfect, and I mean perfect, ember cone in the middle of the cigar. I think that dry boxing this would have helped. I also tried a new cutter on the cigar and i split the head of the cigar, when I took the band off the wrapper unraveled. I think there is a ton of potential in these, hopefully the wrapper burning is a dry boxing issue and nothing more. I won't be using that cutter again, thats for sure.

Thanks heaps for the short review. I'd love to get my hands on a box of these... shame about the price though.

Remember the name and hold your breath

£199 online in UK, as of tomorrow

I got two boxes in due time, and they arrived Bangkok very quick, just 6 days.

I will leave it for a few years like other PL ER UK.

Sounds good though I'd want to try one prior to pulling the trigger on a box. Price/stick and unknown price/performance is putting me off any RE/LE/other specials these days.....

Smoked one tonight and I'm quite disappointed. It's basically a good volado roll, offering diluted distant PL flavours. Pleasant but very common. Absolutely nothing comparable with the Magnificos from 2007.

Uk regionales are getting ridiculously pricey.

Ásia Pacífico on the same way.

I have a box of Boli Britanicas that I was about to revisit today but I didnt do it (JL2 instead). It's a shame. Buying Regionales, for me, is part of the fun from this hobby.

Never had a sobresaliente.
