You also went for the collectors edition. Maybe they are separately handled?

I did yes. They might be shipping later?!
ATG said they'd all ship by late August so not long now....

I haven't received my tracking number yet and I was backer №6 on Kickstarter. It'll arrive soon enough I hope

Been waiting a while for this to arrive. Landed just now. Strictly speaking it's not going to go into the humidor but thought just add here.

Guess this makes me a collector now according to the blurb!

Was pottering around Bury St Edmunds and ran a map search for cigars. This place is a tobacconist/games/newsagent with a little walk in humidor! Small selection for a walk in. But decent enough. Had a couple of RA#3 at £35 do bought the one without the cracked foot to try.

They have a lot of boxes underneath a small shelf selection. The ladies behind the counter said boxes are not for sale. Fair enough. What about those Montecristos with the plain white and brown bands? No those are not for sale! Might email them see what I get back.

There was one other guy there picking out a davidoff.

Sounds intriguing Banos. Hope you can unearth some treasure!

How do you go about discovering/ordering custom rolls Banos? I watched a YouTuber the other day who was recommending a custom rolls called the Margarita from the shop at the Comodoro hotel in Cuba - but thought you would actually have to make a visit to purchase them. I will make it out there but financially it is going to take a little while longer!

You're not the only one to ask. And these have, unfortunately, the usual story behind them. A friend, has a friend who goes to Cuba regularly. And he has friends in the factories! 🤣

So there's no claim where these are made or what they are other than generic Cuban rolled cigars lol If they told me, they'd have to kill me! All I know is that they taste just fine. Are long filler. Well constructed. And have not (yet) contained barnyard floor materials 😬

And I can't get them in large quantities or often. Not like the official thing then! ☺️

Some more Cuban customs to try sometime. They will have a rest. No rush.
