2018 Habanos Released

[Nico]

I'm surprised there hasn't been much discussion of the potential Cohiba Robusto Gran Reserva release? The Siglo VI Gran Reserva was hugely anticipated and lived up to its hype (from what others described) wish i had the chance to try one! Do we think this will perform as well? Pricing I'm sure will be top of the mark but from reviews it was well worth the price. Can someone refresh my memory on what the last cohiba gran reserva opened at price wise? And thoughts on the potential next release, reading posts of the Cohiba 2017 EL has me abit concerned regarding youth so with this being aged with leaf from 2004 I'm hoping for this stick to be a knockout, the most recent cohiba robuto's have been exceptional

I remember pretty vividly that the cohiba GR went for 950-1000 swedish kronor which is about 100 US$ (usually one dollar is 9-9,50 kronor). From what I’ve seen the different reservas and GR have pretty much the same price around world so $100 can’t be that far of.

It will be a Reserva, and it will be tobacco from 2014 (three years aged as usual). The guys from halfweel didn't copy all information correctly.

Since the CORO is a splendid cigar in itself, so will likely be the Reserva. And most probably even a notch above, as has been the case in previous Reservas (D4 and Monte 4 have been a success). Whether it is worth one the extra coin is another kettle of fish....

I fear this won't be a simple SLB, it will be a special humidor. So expect to be asked to shell out triple to quadruple the price of a solid Gigantes.....

Much more - if previous humidors are any indication you're looking at upwards of $5k.

 

Edit: that said, if there ever was a replica humidor that tempted me to spend the huge coin, it would be one full of RA 109s

Another year I'm not in HSA's demographic  

I only hope this lack of skinnies is due to a wrapper shortage. I hope...

RyJ Tacos will be released in the beginning of September in Spain.

[KavalanWhisky]

Are any of the other LE's being released this year or do they generally come out the year after?

[Siberian Bear]

I only hope RyJ are not fish tacos ?

As for La Hoyo de  Rio Seco I'll accept either 46 or 56 rg, come on, it's Le Hoyo!
