Most elusive cigar this year

[Wertman]

I have been waiting all year to see boxes of Des Dieux up on 24:24.  Seem like they are impossible to get.  However I saw a post of some one with 5 boxes.  What other boxes have you guys been waiting for and having a hard time finding?

[CrankYanker]

After yesterdays 24:24 it looks like the Sir Winnies go pretty quick.  It would be nice to get a box of those at some point.  Before the Sir Winnies I was after the PLPCs but I have a cab of those coming.

Des dieux seem to have been on a production hiatus for a couple of years. I haven't seen or heard of any being rolled in 2017. Hopefully this will change soon though. The sir winstons were similarly absent for some time but now are becoming increasingly more available (although snapped up very quickly on 24:24!)

Hhmm with the Des Dieux, having a dedicated following, and displaying a fairly unusual flavour profile, I wouldn't count on HSA just binning them off all together. 

Cigars like these apply pressure on the HDM to find specific tobaccos', why on earth would you want to continue this cycle of having to deliver, when you can make the Elegantes, and have them sell out, in a matter of months.  The Elegantes, may be full, or light, sweet or savoury, the blend can be whatever if wants, theres no pressure whatsoever. 

I would say the effort to dig and find Des Dieux with age, will be worth it, as you'll likely find them in parts of the world where, they'll be just as cheap as if they were being retailed ROTT.

The Des Dieux, like the MdO 2, has been taken off the current vitolario catalogue of HSA. It seems unlikely to see them back very soon. Different "game" for Sir Winnie, which is more or less on normal production schedule, with availability usually starting for a limited time / a limited production by end of summer.

That's disappointing I was really hoping to try one

I've been wondering about these too. I have only seen them on 24:24 a couple of times.

They're around. Unlike the Des Dieux.

As has been mentioned here more than once, LGC MdO2.  Have a stash of cash set aside for next sighting. One can dream.

SLR DC has been out of production since... 2014?

Together with the Saint Luis Rey Double Corona, in a production hiatus (although the SLR DC is rumoured to be discontinued). This is one regular production cigar I'd like to have back soon(ish).

An interesting choice, the type of cigar that is noticed more once it's not around. Like the Vegas Robaina Don Alejandro, a longer cigar that wasn't in large demand.

That's correct.

[HabanosNJGuy]

I started smoking CC regularly almost a year ago.  My goal is to try every regular production cigar at least once.  Never realized that some vitolas go on "hiatus" for years at a time. And when something gets discontinued, I'm like I got to get some to put away...

[Piligrim]

Des Dieux as well as others you mentioned (sir Winston too) available at our market. I paid for RG Asia Pacific and if I'll like it want to get more. So, interesting mostly in local specific cigars

Des Dieux are indeed a rare breed. Pretty sure I haven't seen any boxes with a 2015 box code. The last DDs that popped up were 4 boxes from a locker sale (2013 & 2014 box codes).

Will ask our importer for box codes I think they had 2015, but not sure. I previously held 2003 cardboards and boxes
