Forum I'm still checking (there tends to be a 2016 discontinued list thread, etc, and not so much a central place for all years) but CCW has this list:

https://www.cubancigarwebsite.com/cigar/list?types=discontinued

You can also use their search function to search for discontinuation by different parameters.

Edit: @JohnS did a stats of discontinuations thread here:

Hmmmm, I'm looking for  'current' list of the most recent DQs (in the past 5-6 years or so), not a historical list or stats...I know I saw one somewhere. I'll keep looking! Thanks for the response @Bijan

I'm sure we'll find it. But as I said CCW has that full list, which is up to date minus PLP, and let's you search by discontinued year.

Here are the results for standard production 2015-2020:

Edit: Also links to discontinued and introduced in each year:

Those lists on Cuban Cigar Website are a valuable resource for what you are looking for, @Tstew75. Some further links on our forum...

In the period you mention (2015 to 2020), the Regional Distributor for Germany, Austria and Poland 5th Avenue has been a main source of information on this product. However, keep in mind that cigars listed for discontinuation in the past have come back into production (e.g Fonseca No.1 and possibly Bolivar Tubos No.3. Por Larranaga Panatelas was listed as discontinued in the last 2019 5th Avenue list but this is not confirmed on Cuban Cigar Website) whilst others went 'missing in action' quietly (e.g La Gloria Medaille d'Or No.2, San Cristobal de La Habana El Morro, Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo des Dieux etc). Also, at any one time something like one-quarter to one-third of Habanos regular production cigars are in hiatus.
