avaldes Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 They are traditionally available in early Fall and then after the first of the year. Sometimes a third time around April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get them in Canada (boxes of 25 and singles), but they are pricey and the vendor doesn't ship to the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last box is JAN 16, but I believe I've seen some even more recent ones around already, as well as some stock with a bit of age already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foursite12 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 One of several cigars currently unavailable/unseen in the main for at least the past 18 months, presumably due to shortages of suitable leaf. Or for other, more nefarious, reasons speculated by the inmates here. Although not the same, I find a lot of SW genetic markers in the Connie A FWIW. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnInCleveland Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Found a few online a few months back. The dates were 13 or 14. They've been scarce ever since. I really wanted to see what the fuss was about and I wasn't disappointed. If you get the chance, pull the trigger. It's the best cigar I've had the pleasure of trying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbb Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I am wondering if anyone who has recently (last 6 months) gone to Cuba recall seeing any boxes around the island? Looking at regular production not the Reserva. Also, anyone talk to LCDH employees about SW production or at the festival? Thanks for any info.

I was there in November, and they were none were to be found. Fonseca No 1s, Behike Singles, Sig VI boxes, all the currently released LCDH spsecials, 50 cabs of Hoyo DC, but alas. No Sir Winston of any kind. The only chatter I have heard from the recent Habanos festival was regarding the Sir Winston GRs. Which I will not be touching with a 10 foot pole. We haven't seen hardly any Winnies the last two years, but your gunna tell me all those shiny GRs you're selling me are all 5+ years old? And I need to pay $50 per stick? Hahaha HSA has no need for concern though, another one is born every minute. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, that's insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corylax18 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I don't have anything confirmed yet, but I can't imagine them being less than $50. Look at the price of the Capuletos for this 24:24, less cigar, no previous name recognition, and just a "lowly" LE. The Reservas get price bumps, the Gran Reservas move into an entirely new price bracket. The Cohiba Gran Reservas listed for $115 PER STICK, the Monte No. GRss a few years later looked downright affordable at about $75 a piece. The more I think about it, the $75 to $100 dollar range actually seems more likely. For a stick that in all likely is not what you are being told it is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaclub Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I can get them in Canada (boxes of 25 and singles), but they are pricey and the vendor doesn't ship to the US. What vendor?

MooseAMuffin Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Wow, I figured it would be more like $35 a stick. Not saying that would be worth it at that price, that was just a guess. I am not liking this new program. Seems like a money grab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RijkdeGooier Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Sir Winston is sighted again? Boxcides MEL DIC 2016 which box would you choose and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallclub Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I guess this is typically a case where I'd base my choice on aroma and construction rather than wrapper quality… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
