For reference, we can also refer to @oliverdst's Habanos 2017 Release thread from August 2016, where he acknowledges Alexandre Avellar's scoop.

Sure. From Charlie Minato at Halfwheel (August 2016), in metric and imperial measurements, and all cigars listed...

If on a par with the ConnA, these could be the BHK54 of the HU line. I'm cringing in anticipation of the price :(

Your post got me thinking today, and my conclusion left me quite cynical and frustrated. I do sincerely hope what I am about to post below does not come about. You see, this touted upcoming H.Upmann Connossieur B (if they keep the intended spelling error!) is a La Casa del Habanos Exclusive release right? Well, let's take a look at those releases...

What has been the thinking behind these, that they are available for a period of 5 years? Well, the Ramon Allones Superiores is still going strong (thankfully), and most of these are currently available, no?

Now let's take a look at the Habanos Specialist Releases...

Are these as widely available as the La Casa del Habano Exclusivo releases? I think not. Currently, we've been very fortunate to have the H.Upmann Connossieur A regularly available since it came out in 2015 (yes, I'm going off memory here, it took awhile for it come out), but good luck getting some San Cristobal de La Habana Torreon. The Partagas Maduro No.1 was unavailable for a time in 2016 too.

My conclusion? That Habanos S.A will in no way make a cigar at 52 ring gauge x 140 mm and another one at 54 ring gauge and 150mm and have them available concurrently. The thought that this may occur makes me quite peeved, to say the least, as the H.Upmann Connossieur A is large enough as it is, and is more expensive than regular production H.Upmann. If the Connossieur A wasn't such a quality blended cigar which I quite enjoy, naturally, I wouldn't care as a much. Let's hope this occurrence doesn't prevail.

Gran Reserva Sir Winnies you say! So very optimistic, and scared to see what price point Habanos drops those at.  Additionally, when boxes will hit the market.  Good post @Bohn007!!

I would assume that we will see boxes in about a year if we are lucky. Habanos S.A. Has done a great job of delivering consistently late what was promised. Maybe they will just wait to first deliver all of what was promised for 2016? Why change a successful business model.

All of the LCDH will be winners just based on track record. I'm excited to see the Trinidad line expand with it. I'll probably avoid the mag54 now in anticipation of the Connie B. Hopefully the new Monte aren't an expansion of the open line. I'll take a couple boxes of the SWGR.

It's always possible. But the Habanos Specialist releases have never gone away and neither have the LCDH releases since 2006. I think at worst production of the HS Connie A will be reduced but not eliminated. The Connie A has had far more production than the Torreon and the Party Maduro, for example. I could easily see the Connie A reduced to a limited run every year or two similar to the Torreon and the Connie B being as available as the Connie A is and most of the LCDH releases are. You have to admit, production on the Connie A has been quite high in general. Reducing it and focusing on the Connie B is a real possibility.
