This wouldn’t be the first time that one roller had the task of producing a special humidors cigars. This also won’t be the last. This is confirmed info from the head of EL. Wonder who told you different. Oh and these cigars are heavily controlled. Anything you see popping up and being sold aren’t the real deal unless they came from the pre-release boxes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Presidente Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 When I start a thread with "Rumour From Havana" it is more "best information at the time" as opposed to Pulitzer winning journalism. It is a great way of pooling information....as it has proved here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 The rrp on these in the UK is £50,000. The price in Cuba is to be $50,000 While not cheap, I've never seen a release to have so close a price between UK and Cuba. It's normally 2x - 3x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy just bought a bundle of 25 of these real cheap that were rolled at EL. He said why pay full price when you can pay a fraction for the exact same cigar. Crazy world we live in....

NSXCIGAR Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Just smoked one generously gifted. Actually 56 x 190 (7 1/2). It's a big boy, no doubt about it. I was smoking at a fairly brisk pace and it was a solid 3 hours. Ain't worth no $500. 100% RyJ DNA. IMO, this is where the standard Churchills should be. Under medium, fairly flavorful but not rich, very balanced. Just enough flavor and balance to keep me from getting sick of it which is actually quite impressive for a 3 hour cigar. I didn't get the sense that there's any "special" or extremely aged leaf in it like a BHK or GR. Standard leaf but definitely high quality. I would say 93 points. Best RyJ I've had in recent memory. Unfortunately, this is about the ceiling for RyJ. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have been the case in 2019 but I can assure you with 100% certainty there is no longer such a thing as "tightly controlled" in Cuba. Anything can be had with the right connection and cash.
