    I do!

    But they will probably fly off the shelves. Too bad it's a UK release since they would have been 30% to 40% cheaper in most other countries.

    I agree, it's a very special cigar!

    Completely agree. The new Connie B is fairly fat, but just about comfortable at 54RG. Anything beyond this is an occasional smoke for me.

    The small QdO is still available.

    Sadly the thinnest RG RES that are realeased now are Petit Robustos and such. I would probably go deep if they would release a thin RG RE in the future.

    I had a chat with the owner of my cigar store today and he believes that most skinny cigars have a sword hanging over their head. They just don't sell anymore. People tend to go for bigger RG cigars today. That's what sells now. Heck, even I have been buying them...

    They told me not before the end of the year. But then again French REs have a habit of popping up out of the blue. I will postr further infor on the forum once I know more.

    Toulouse has a few cigar shops:

    Espace Cigares
    8 rue du poids de l'huile

    Bureau de tabac et Civette Victor Hugo
    11 Rue du Rempart Villeneuve

    Tabac Crampel
    4 Avenue Crampel

    And here's a link to others that are supposed to sell cigars:



    I have never visited any of these. Let's hope that they are worth a visit and that you find something good.

    There will be two REs for France this year:

    A JL 55 RG in ten count boxes and a QdO Libertador (ish) cigar.

    I forgot the names of both already but will ask the next time I see the person who has the information.

    2019 or 2020 will probably see a very very nice QdO release but I'm not allowed to talk about it yet since it's still in the works. Let's just say that this release will interest quite a few of us.

    I have my limit at a 52 rg. However, the hdm palmas extras has become a massive favourite recently so I'm hoping these stay around

    Yes, it took me a little while to get used to them and manage to smoke them without a problem now. But I still tend to go for smaller RGs most of the time. The biggest cigars I smoke are usually Robustos.
