most exciting thing on that list to me is the Topes becoming regular. Always wanted to try one.

Well, three new regular production vitolas is better than none.

I'll be in the corner, clutching my shoulders in fear of this year's impending discontinuations list.

Thanks for the list! Some interesting stuff.

Just gotta make sure you’re sitting down when you see the pricing ;)

I'd love to know more about the SCDLH LCDH release for sure. San Cristobal has very impressive pedigree on the discontinued lcdh releases and a new addition would be all over my radar...if theyre rolled at La Corona that is.

Going hard on Trinidad, wonder if it's an effort to establish another "premier" brand like Cohiba. Feel like Trinidad has the chops for it.

How are the SC in the La Torreon jar? It's a little steep at 700-900 bones, but curious if they're any good

They are awesome! The price is rather steep, however and just how many jars do you really need... I wish they were selling them in boxes as well for $100 less per 25.

@Derboesekoenig I completely forgot about the Torreon jar, I was thinking more about the Oficios and Mercaderes which are both classics and even the Muralla was solid. The Torreon are good sticks, but they don't seem to get me the way some people love them. Size is one issue for me and the other is that the experience doesn't meet the $30+ price point.

They were all over the place in Havana when I was there and no one was buying them. Kicking myself now--I think I was too dazed to process everything.

Do you recall the price? I remember seeing them, but don't remember the gov price.

Exactly what I was thinking.  I think habanos could do so much more with Trinidad but we get stuck with petite robustos.

I want to say it was $400 or $500? I saw it at several places, including a non-LCDH shop in Old Havana selling a mixture of real and fake cigars.

Not from their perspective. They'll be $25 - $30 a stick and perpetually sold out.

Surprised at the topes with the vigia being close to same size. Hopefully the other trinny is a double robusto
RA no2 I will be all over that like a fat kid on blue smarties
Cohiba LCDH release sounds interesting too.
