Colt45 Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Man, the Bolivars look nice. Can you tell me what the maroon diagonal seal says? And are the maroon cigar bands the same? Thanks for the info and pics.

Thanks for the info and pics. It looks like a "La Casa De Habano" Release. Desigated for LCDH stores worldwide. The San Cristobal Muralla's, Officios and Mercederes have the same band.
Jimmy2 Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 I have been waiting for these for a LONGGGGGGGGGGGG time . They both look great will you be getting both?

Desigated for LCDH stores » worldwide. » (laughing at myself) I did a little research, but could not find definitive answers to: Is the upcoming release to be limited, or is it to become "regular" production? Are these still to be an LCDH release?
El Presidente Posted June 21, 2007 Author Posted June 21, 2007 » Are these still to be an LCDH release? My understanding they are a LCDH release only and regular production. I don't think it will be a problem for all major non grey market vendors to get their hands on them. We certainly will not have any problem.
Ginseng Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Oh boy. I am so all over these. Very nice photos and a significant up-classing of the culebras. I think I like that better than the foil presentation. Wilkey
greenpimp Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Beautiful. Good God Rob I'm gonna have to sign my house over to you this summer.
Mike33 Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Rob, any word on the blend for the BGM? Is it the same as Wolter's from '04?
JeepCop Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Maybe I'll just get the Cohiba maddies and the Boli Golds at the same time. Man, does it really get any better than this???
Tampa1257 Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 We certainly will not have any problem. I am very glad to hear this, as both of these are high on my priority list. I wonder what a full box of the Culebras (25ct) from 2000 would be worth... mmmmmmmmmmm I side by side taste testing could be in order.............
genevapics Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 I assume the Culebras come in boxes of ten? Three (3) cigars to a coofin and one (1) single cigar?

I only know of one person who has such a full box. Tampa, you old miser, you may have to crack that box open.

Andre, it is my understanding that the new Hand Made Culebras are packaged 9 to a box, three coffins of three braids each. No single like the old machine made Culebras.

bassman Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Been waiting for the Gold Medals a long time. I smoked one cigar from the Wolters release & it was fantastic.
Professor Twain Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 See this previous thread for pictures and reviews of the 2000 version: [link]http://www.friendsofhabanos.com/board_entry.php?id=45810#p45810[/link]
El Presidente Posted June 22, 2007 Author Posted June 22, 2007 These are just Habanos s.a stock photo's sent to me Thursday. When released all stickers will be applied.
shortsqueeze Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 For as many things as Habanos does stupid, they do so much with more class and elegance than any other cigar producers/marketers. The Culebra cigars and presentation is beautiful, just stunning. Same with the BGM.
cvm4 Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 Thanks for the update and I'll definitely have to pick some of these up if the pricing is right.
