CanIGetAHolla Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I have been going on the assumption that LCDH exclusives are limited to a certain amount of boxes made. The production number I typically see in reviews is 5000. However, recently I have seen LGC Inmensos and RA Superiores with 2014 date codes. The Inmensos came out in 2010 and the Superiors in 2012. How are boxes of these still being made in 2014 and offered for sale in 2015? Are these not limited to the 5000 total boxes that I assumed they were?

b4z00k4 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 If I'm not mistaken, it's 5000 boxes a year from the initial release until they are discontinued. The obvious exception being the Noellas jar. If I AM mistaken, someone will be along shortly to correct me. ;-)

The definitive source for all information on Cuban cigars. http://www.cubancigarwebsite.com/brands.aspx http://www.cubancigarwebsite.com/list.aspx?&specialtype=LCDH_Exclusive_Release;&sortorder=releaseyear Thanks for repsonding. I have read the site and researched these two cigars in particular before positng here. At the CC Website it says that the Inmensos are a Varnished Semi Boite Nature Box of 10 cigars (5,000 made). Status: A 2010 release. and the Superiores are Dress Box of 10 cigars (5,000 made). Status:A 2010 release. I've read that the Superiores were delayed until 2012. The reviews I have read says that they are limited to 5000 boxes "Worldwide". It appears that these are not limited to 5000 total boxes produced. Since they're not limited, can someone please explain where the 5000 box number comes from? Are 5000 boxes made every year and sent to LCDH stores? Personally, I've only had 2010 Inmensos and 2012 Superiores, that's why I'm a little perplexed to see 2014 versions of these two.
CanIGetAHolla Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 If I'm not mistaken, it's 5000 boxes a year from the initial release until they are discontinued. That's the jist I'm getting, but I can't find anything online that actually says that they are produced every year.. I'm pretty sure that this is the case considering the boxes I have aren't numbered. Just looking for clarification from the knowledgeable members here as to what is produced and how often?
Lotusguy Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 If I'm not mistaken, it's 5000 boxes a year from the initial release until they are discontinued. The obvious exception being the Noellas jar. If I AM mistaken, someone will be along shortly to correct me. ;-) The Noellas also had two releases (the second one actually had box dates, unlike the first release). I can't find it now, but the information about the 5k boxes a year until discontinuation came either from an official or semi-official source.
Geo17pip Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I was thinking the same exact thing about the RAS. I have a box from 2013, so if you have a 2012 box would that make it the original release?
dchapman Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 My understanding is that they are produced continually, but only in small numbers.
shlomo Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 No serial number, no way of knowing for sure. They can make 10000 boxes per year and nobody would know the difference. Wish they would make some more BGMs though. Word on the street is 5000 per year until they stop.
Smallclub Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I've read that the Superiores were delayed until 2012. They were not. They were available in 2010. 4

Agreed, I had the same question a few weeks back, got the same reference to CCW, scoured it, and it's not conclusive.
