ChanceSchmerr Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Just a question for fellas that might be in the know -are the H&F 225th Anniversary RE's going to be released in any packaging other than the 100ct humidor with 4x bundles of 25 cigars inside? Just wondering if these are going to thus be out of reach cost-wise, or if there will be some sort of 25 or 10 ct box releases too...... 1
LordAnubis Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Mate pretty sure no matter what sale size they will be sold long before the boxes even hit the shhelves.
johndalton44 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 A post on IG indicates that there will be 25ct SLBs available in addition to the 225, 100ct humidors. http://instagram.com/p/z7VrcxMovi/ 2
Professor Twain Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Similar post from Jimmy McGee of Hunters & Frankau on Twitter Jimmy McGhee @cigarsmokers Dec 22 @PrTwain 2,000 boxes of 25. 50,000 sticks in total. From these we're making 225 cabinets of 100 (4x25) cigars, so not too many available...

Popular Post Ryan Posted March 8, 2015 Popular Post Posted March 8, 2015 They'll come in SLBs of 25 too. I smoked one last night. I hate to say it but they're very nice. Lovely wrapper and draw. No harshness, did not taste freshly rolled. Spicy toasted marshmallow, just about sums them up. Gets quite strong in the final third. 8
ChanceSchmerr Posted March 8, 2015 Author Posted March 8, 2015 Thanks guys, I appreciate the info! If they come in 25ct boxes, I should be able to get at least a box after all then. And a few singles so I can leave the box alone for a bit LOL 1
SteveGriff Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Thanks for the info! Going to be one on most people's lists I think... hopefully there will be plenty of single sticks for sale from the UK retailers...
CaptainQuintero Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Yep 25 count SLB and 100-count Italian Cabinets with an additional specially blended Havana Club Rum made just for this cigar. I'm thinking pricey!

Coloniales Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 That was my IG post, yes a phenomenal cigar, the blend is REALLY good, really, really good. The best RE yet IMO. Keith. 3
Lotusguy Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I want them so bad.... Almost all the UK RE that I have tried have been excellent so far so these are bound to be good. Hoping they will be available duty free at some point.

LordAnubis Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Heathrow terminal 3 departure has a range of RE's (UK ones) when I last went through. Not a lot on the way back. I think the best bet to get some of these would be to ask a retailer to reserve a box for you. I suspect there's a decent line for them already. ChanceSchmer, call up our usual suspects and ask them about it If you need a partner in crime to go in on a box, I'd be happy to chip in.
spirit Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 They do look like lovely sticks. Anyone got any idea on the UK price point yet? I guess they ain't going to be be cheap...

Vortigan Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 I'd love to get my hands on a box of these..............but then I'd love to get them on Megan Fox,also! 2
almudawi Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 I have a feeling that one will need to break the bank for the big 3 releases of this year. Can't wait for the German RA 898 and the Bashidos prices to be announced. 1 gone.. 2 to go
