The stand outs for me are the Upmann robustos (I wonder how different they will be from this years Royals?) and the Churchills (if they are a real R and J blend and not stupid expensive).

such a shame so many are 50+ RG

Expect to see them some time in 2013

Looks like every brand will have a petit robusto soon, if they are all as good as the Hoyo PR then good times are ahead
Thanks for the find

I always wonder where they get so much tobacco from to produce so many brands and sizes of large ring gauge cigars, unless the plan is to produce lower volume and charge more per stick.

The H Upmann Robustos in the travel humidor were a.m.a.z.i.n.g. definitely will get some of those.

the EL'S for 2012 all look amazing, especially the Montecristo. Let's hope we don't need to break the bank for them

Agreed Deano :yum:
I wonder if they will be like these... ?

Thanks for posting this Monkey and well done Trevor for getting the info together.

I agree that there are too many short and fat cigars here. We recognise the change in smoking habits but how about some creativity? Small figurados? Or why not get the aficionados excited and bring back a classic- Ramon Allones 898 anyone?

We have a lovely small Monte in regular production (petit Edmundo). Do we need a petit Robusto?

The San Cristobal jar should be nice though and I also like the Upmann robustos

I cracked mine open last week and I have to disagree. Ive only had one from the 6 but Far to mild and tasteless imho

[Kdot]

Just checked out the list, no real wow factor. The RyJ Churchill reserva is the only thing to get excited about for me. No doubt the price will be similar to the previous reserva releases.

I couldn't agree more, chico!

Hurumph! Ignore the Kman, senor serious. I've smoke four of the six that came with the most excellent travel pack/humidor and found them to be, well... MOST EXCELLENT!

Now, if the 2012 production is the same, put me down for three boxes, por favor!



Perro, el Perro

Hey el Perro! Me so happy!

[Bigboned]

Is the Connie 1 not upmanns robusto?

[TJCoro]

Cound it be?

Is the Connie 1 not upmanns robusto?

I don't think so, muchacho, but I don't know that for a fact!

It's a 48. Not a huge difference.....plus the RR is longer

Your spot on. We do have a lovely small Monte in production, which is why i think other companies should have one too.

I would love to have a RASS in that size.

[Deano]

Agree with TJ. I gave one to drew/andy too, and he enjoyed it
