Crowned Heads Yellow Rose

I saw this yesterday.http://halfwheel.com/crowned-heads-release-texas-exclusive-yellow-rose

 

[Stogies and Suds]

I'm excited to see the TN Waltz blend in a larger size & slightly larger ring guage, would love to compare it with the Waltz and see it changes the flavore profile any.

So it's a rebranded (different vitola) TW. I'd like to see some more core line blends....a stick that i can trust will be there when I need some more. All this limited production stuff is getting tiresome.. Or maybe I'm just tired lol

Agreed. At least this time I'm in the same state as the release.

Yellow Rose is a tittie bar in Austin

Same. I'm still a huge fan of CH, but it does leave me confused that they publicly stated early on something along the lines of "It's bad to keep doing limited after limited," and then they ended up doing that. I'm sure somebody could find the post, but I just don't care that much.

Well, I mean, limited means higher prices and they're in it to make money, so... can't fault 'em for that.

In fact, I'd argue that since the Angel's Anvil is a limited release, and it's like just the greatest cigar, they should do more limiteds.

 

[Cigary43]

When they make cigars as good as they do....a rose by any other name...I don't care what they name it. It's like Pavlovs Dog...they make a cigar and I'm ready to smoke it.

 

[Erikcooper]

If they keep doing them for different locations in slightly different vitolas you can get it, kinda lol. I'd still like to get a 5er of it and the Paniolo Especiale as well. Anyone that got on the list for a box of them planning to do a split? If so I'm in for sure

 

[Cigary43]

I saw the photo of these on another thread....I drooled so much I considered putting gutters around my lips to divert it somewhere else.

Well I wanted to and was told I was on the list but just got the the email and all it said was its sold out. Oh well maybe I'll get in on the last shipment.

 

[Erikcooper]

Wel damn. I wonder if what they produced actually sold out at the event? That's disappointing. Maybe @JonHuber can say?

 

[Wicket]

Some people got them not sure why I was skipped but it's okay.

 

[Xavier Dredo]

I'm done chasing. Sorry Jon, I'll pick up some Las Calaveras, but that's it...

 

[ckay]

Marvin sent out emails for the Panioli which is a TW single store release. Instead of chasing give him a shout

Edit. Just saw that some of you have been told that it is sold out.

 

[atbat82]

I'm a big CH fan, but I'm also growing tired of chasing limited releases. If I stumble upon some (as I recently did for some MD north) I'll gladly by them, but there are too many good regular production sticks from many makers to pull my hair out chasing yellow rose or yellow cake or cream soda or dirty rats.

Not to take anything of from Jon Huber or his team - they keep turning out winners. I just won't be lined up for them hitting refresh every 6 seconds.

 

[mdwest]

I hate "the chase"...

That said... As soon as they release the TN Waltz blend in a 4x44... I'm down for 10 boxes...

(Hint, hint Jon... )...

 

[MC808]

All but 32 boxes were sold at the event. Those boxes went to the top of the wait list. I have a second batch coming in six to eight weeks that will take care of all of you that want some.
E-mail me at marvinchang@foodland.com and I will make sure you get the Paniolos.
By the way, they are fantastic. A more concentrated full-flavored version of the Tennessee Waltz.
Thanks for understanding.

BOTL - Just to clarify, Yellow Rose is NOT "Limited" and I'm not expecting anyone to 'chase' here...
It is a REGULAR PRODUCTION cigar we are doing exclusively for the state of Texas. Period. Just as we did Tennessee Waltz as a regular and ongoing production cigar for our home state of Tennessee.
We are grateful to have over 70 stores in Texas that have supported Crowned Heads, and this is our way of saying 'thank you.' Yellow Rose will not be a "chase"--there will be many B&Ms that will ship out of state (ex: SeriousCigars.com).

I think @JonHuber wrote on a Reddit AMA that it wasn't their intention, but it became what people really wanted and what really sold, so as a company, they're continuing to do them because it ended up being where the demand was for them.

I was totally unaware that the Tennessee Waltz was a regular production cigar! Great news.
