Campanas (3/5)

  1. Congrats to you both and what an awesome celebration with friends!
  2. Hey all, it's been widely discussed as the original public release of the Cohiba Siglo VI was 2003, but they were launched in 2002. Besides the many bloggers, I haven't seen much written proof to say if 2002 released any cigars publicly other than at a launch party. Were the launch party cigars, standard Siglo VI in a box, and were coded 2002? Or were they singles handed out and the only boxed ones in 2002 were the humidor? Just curious as the discussion has come up... any wisdom/proof would be appreciated! If I can link CA, here's a write up from James Suckling back then: https://www.cigaraficionado.com/article/for-the-love-of-cohiba-8221
  3. As mentioned above, this LCDH (and also other location from same owner) was discussed elsewhere recently where someone bought fake Cohiba from, and sent back. I've also seen plenty of pictures of numerous other region RE's at the Cancun location, that were sketchy at best. I personally will stay far away from this business.
  4. What a fantastic video, thank you for doing this and sharing! I'm so f'ing happy for Hamlet and for the success and joy he is getting and has, he deserves the best. For people that haven't had the pleasure of meeting him, do what you can to get to any events he's doing, as he's one of the genuine good guys in the industry. Looking forward to trying what you guys are cooking up!
  5. Would love to see number of cigars sold vs revenue... pretty hard to compare year to year when the prices shot through the roof.
  6. Not so sure Cohiba and Trinidad has missed the mark... 2 days in a row I saw here of Cohiba selling at the new prices, sold out. Same with Trinidad Esmeraldas today. And this forum is made up of mainly regular Joe buyers...
  7. So sad... so sorry to all his family and many friends that he made along the way. He was a true ambassador to what we all love about the cigar community.
  8. Yep... either way you look at it, many of our thoughts on this, if turned into replies here, will earn a ban... lol
  9. I was totally in until I saw it holds cigars at 75% humidity...
  10. Okay thanks. I knew the main outer box has the proper seals, etc, but I wasn't positive about the smaller 3/5 pack boxes. Reason I ask is that I saw someone with a current band CoRo petaca, with a pre 2010 warranty seal on it with rounded corners by the hologram. I found it odd but couldn't say for certain if a 5 cigar petaca should have a beveled corner seal, rather than a rounded corner one like I saw.
  11. I rarely buy the cardboard petacas, so I'm looking for some help on the warranty seals... Should the 3-cigar petacas have current/regular warranty seals with the beveled corners by the hologram, vs being rounded at the corners? Should the warranty seals have the micro-print serial numbers on them? And lastly, do all petacas have the barcode with serial numbers on them, either on the seal or printed on the cardboard packaging itself? Cheers
  12. I can still picture Ravi's list when those were for sale... so, many, cabs, of 03s.
  13. Very impressed with your new graphic design work! You definitely win the effort award for putting together a quality design vs using the best picture you could find. Just to be clear, if there are 60 shirts purchased, will every order get a hat, or only ones who order multiple shirts? Just wondering if someone orders one shirt, if they'll get a hat too? Cheers!
