2011 LE's and LCdH's

[ninersfan]

I have some questions regarding a few specific CC's that are out there, or will be out there soon.

There are a couple of 2011 LE's that I find really appealing:

- Hoyo de Monterrey Short Hoyo Piramides

- Ramon Allones Allones Extra

I'd love to pick up a box of each (maybe two of the HdM, since they will be packaged as 10 sticks per).

When is the scheduled release for these particular cigars? Does anyone know if definitive pricing has been determined for them? If so, what's the going rate?

I'd also like to try and pick up a box (at least) of the Ramon Allones Allones Superiores. However, I've noticed that these are only available through the La Casa del Habano outlets. Are these offered through other channels or are they strictly a LCdH stick?

Thanks in advance for any additional info.

Definitely into the Ramon Allones. As for being a LCdH only release, that seems so, but I can't imagine they will be super hard to get.


The cost on the other hand, will sadly probably be beyond me.

I smoked the LCDH RA when I was in Grand Cayman last month. Nice stick, but not something you need to sell plasma for. The price was mid-teens, IIRC.

They are under $100 CUC in cuba for the RA Superiores. The 2011 editions should come out in Oct - Nov.

No way, the 2011 LEs will be around in three months or less.

This is the planned release schedule for all the new releases this year. This was accurate as of the festival so not sure how things have changed.

Thanks for posting the release schedule. Any idea on pricing, particularly on the Ramon Allones and the Cohiba 1966s?

No those I am a little unsure of. Prices will depend on regions they are coming from. Grey market and Cuba will
be the cheapest. All I can say is I managed to buy the 1966's for 8 CUC each while I was in Havana. But that was no boxes no bands.

Yeah maybe $9ish US. I would guess they will be $35ish a stick on swiss grey market and could be as high as over $100 a stick in Ontario Canada.

Any idea on CUC pricing? $8.00/stick is unbelievable!!!! great score.

Did you have an opportunity to try one yet? If so, what are your thoughts?
