Jimmy_jack Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Perhaps I missed it. @Elpresidente is this something we may see on the 24 or would it be a special appearance if it did?

Jimmy_jack Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 I was speaking in general terms...not for this weekends 24:24. There are many that we never see here.

I can't recall any over the past decade or so that haven't been sold here aside from other regional or crazy rare.

Yay" How in Christ would you know that it is a similar smoking experience? Any idea on pricing yet, or too early? I might buy a box if they are coming in around the same price as the Cohiba Pyramids.

These cigars are so far away pricing will have to take inflation into account. Seriously though, don't expect these before Q4 2017 at the earliest, and those will probably be pre-release versions. I believe the Monte 80th was introduced at the 2015 Habanos Festival in Feb 2015 and I don't recall them hitting any shelves until well into 2016, like Q3 2016, or about 18 months from the Festival announcement. The only timely release that I can think of was the Anejados releases. The news broke on these in Dec 2014 and they were on shelves in Q1 2015. Which is actually another indication something's not right with them. Habanos had been planning these for 8 years only to break the news 3 months before release? Sure.

tigger Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Never was a huge fan of the Marca, but I miss this, with its understatement and real class: The new line may well be good, but I've never been able to stomach upcharges for "luxury" indicators which have nothing to do with quality. 2

Some new bands look like NC's. I prefer discretion. 2

So this is about what to expect? If they're very good, and provide a unique alternative to the classic line, and come in 10ers, I might bite. Though it's not something I could justify spending very often. I don't mind the foot bands. Will save me from some cracked feet. 3 bands total is overkill, though.

David88 Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Those prices, while high, are not as high as I was expecting from a triple handed self declared 'premium' cigar. I doubt I would ever buy more than a single or two though unless reviews are very good. Has anyone actually seen these yet? Or the 2017 LEs or general releases? I'm sure we have normally seen something by October...

I do want to try them, but going deep is out of the question from the get go. Maybe Rob, will sells some samplers? Two of each of the three vitolas. Hint hint.

I don't follow what EL, RE, LCDH etc is coming out because there is nothing for me and the average chap anymore, at least that is what HSA is telling me. I am at the same position here...
