Bohn007 Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 These cigars are being advertised as in stock in some shops. I will be curious who get's the first orders delivered and any reviews. The prices seem to only keep going up on the EL's. @Elpresidente, any word?
Akela3rd Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 These are the Honduran RyJs aren't they?

Im sure there will be plenty of demand. Its good to see HSA getting a special release out in the designated year though!
Bohn007 Posted September 21, 2016 Author Posted September 21, 2016 I am being told by sources to expect supply in mid October in other parts of the world.

Akela3rd Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 I stand corrected, and not a little excited!

Danimalia Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Curious to see the reviews on these. Probably not something I will go out of my way to seek out, but If they're really good, maybe... At 6 x 53, It's just a hair thicker than I like, but certainly acceptable.

I remember the day I thought spending $10 a stick was crazy, maybe one day...... Assuming that the German price is in Euros, then based on XE that would be about $22.26 But still too rich for me. 1

Your math is better than mine. I had the Rate right at about 1.12, but got caught up in the multiplication somewhere........ 1
Lotusguy Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 I'd definitely be more likely to go deep on the similarly priced RE LGC Glorias and/or Boli Salomones RE instead... 1

Agreed, I don't know the exact weight, but those LGCs have to be about twice as much cigar, for about the same price.
avaldes Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Too bad they used the name of a once great corona to slap on the newest donkey dong.

Great point to bring up. While a $500 25ct box may seem offputting, a $200 10ct box is basically the same price per cigar.
LandCruiser Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 The prices on these just dont work.... Im sure there is a ton of demand because its the cool thing to have... but I will take a great regular production stick at 1/2 the cost any day. 1

Maybe after I read the some reviews on it I might change my mind but too many good cigars for less.
