2016 Regionals

[dangolf18]

Which 2016 regionals have people spotted? I haven't really come across any in the wild.

I saw a bolivar salamones, the regional for Germany for "this year". However, it was not for sale, and may be a pre release for some habanos dealers. They haven't received their 2015 edition yet so I doubt we will see this salamones for sale for quite some time.

I also saw the Jl superba for the UK. But, once again not for sale, just at their summer party. Usually, they get theirs semi on time so maybe by December we may see those.

There may be a punch 109 for Andorra that saw but I can't confirm nor deny if that release is real.

Would love to see a Boli Salomone.

It's a repeat regional, but will be much more available this round.

Would the 50 shades of RA petit robusto be classified as a "repeat regional"?

Lant63, thanks for the heads up.  A quick Google search provided the following from CA:  The Bolivar Armonía is an additional regional-edition smoke created for the Hong Kong duty-free market. It is a large 7 1/4 inch by 57 ring gauge double-tapered cigar identical in size to the Cuaba Salomone.. 

I missed this one as I spent '07-'08 in Afghanistan.  Not much of a market I guess for a RE

The first was a China regional with 2008 produced. This new one is a 6000 produced German regional. Someone can correct me if wrong or knows more info. I gathered this from CCW. The 2008 release was before my time, but from what I've read it was not easy to come by.

Fabes, great info.  With 6k production run I might just get lucky with this go around!  Sure wish I was back in Germany.  Sprechen sie Deutsch?

Don't hold your breath, guys. They are not out yet. Friend of mine just visited the 5ta Avenida (official sole importer) warehouse last week and while he saw Cohiba Medio Siglo and some new RyJ release, there was no word on the 2015 or 2016 German RE.

I've seen the JL online. I'd like to buy a box. Do they ever show up here on the 24:24?

Which one? Unless it's a PCC release, Rob wouldn't have it.

I just went back and looked, not a regional release. It's a limited for "Hunters and Frankau" called the Superba.
