anjimj Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Anyone in the cigar community hear anything on the status of this cigar being released? It was supposed to be released last fall and now a year later still haven't heard anything on its release date. I was saving my coin for a box of these but I may just invest my coin in some RA Superiors and a cab of RASS instead. Any insight would be appreciated! Thanks, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleDD Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Rumors are circulating that shipping to the retailers will commence soon but that's all it is so far, rumors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anjimj Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 I wonder if they hold back a release because the cigars just aren't ready yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnS Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Right now the issue is when these will come out. However, I think what is pertinent to add to our discussion is that the original Ramon Allones 8-9-8 was not much seen after the early 1990s. It reappeared in 1998 in small quantities but was discontinued in 2002. I understand it was not a big seller. If this regional release is like the original, than we will be expecting a strong cigar that will benefit from some time resting, like 3 years. I guess we'll see but I'm intrigued to hear from our experienced enthusiasts who have savoured the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btp1979 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Is there any chance these will be available through FOH? If not I'd really appreciate if someone could PM details on how to obtain. I definitely want a box and would probably want to split a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habana Mike Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Unlikely to see any non-PCC Regionals here but I guess one never knows..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oliverdst Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Ask for them in lcdh berlin, and was told they were finished, as in sold out - havent seen them on sale anywhere though Do you speak German? If not I am almost sure you had some kind of misunderstanding with the seller. He understood you were asking about any Alemania Regionales, which, I think, are all sold out (1 or 2 exceptions in someplaces). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumadoro Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 The RA 8-9-8 is not the only 2014 release that hasn't hit the market yet. The H. Upmann Butifarra and No. 2 Reserva Cosecha 2010 are MIA as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puros Y Vino Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 39euros a pop. I think the RyJ Reservas were the same. What?! I heard initial pricing was 360Euros/box. Some profiteering ahead. I hope this is a mistake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleDD Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 For 39 Euros a cigar they can shove it. You can get two boxes of Gigantes or a box of aged RA 898 for less. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 There might be some confusion on this thread, I think the 39 euro per cigar was referring to the reservas price, not the RA 898. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
