[ciggy]

The year I was born! I would love to give one of these a go but it's alot of coin. Has anyone had one yet?

Soon if not now, copy and past from article on CA posted 09/14/2011

"The Cohiba 1966 Edición Limitada 2011, a dark, oily and powerful Cuban cigar that impressed in a preview tasting at the Habanos Festival in February, is finally ready for market. Habanos S.A., the global distributor of Cuban cigars, announced today that the cigar was coming to cigar shops in "days.""

I'm looking forward to trying as well. They come in 10ct boxes, anyone know the price point? I thought around $250 per box?

I had one. Very similar to the Behike. VHTF. Mine was a gift.

I would guess 300-350 a box!

+1 I estimate in the same price range as the Behike.

Tom if you want to get a box make sure you get from the first batch, usually the best.

If we are lucky, since this is a EL they will probably be a little more.
Sadly I think more 350...hope not 400!

I did a review on one...it seemed like it was sick. I have another, but going to sit on it for a little while.

I wish...Sorry Ben but that's out of my budget for 10 cigars. The wife would really kill me! I may have to wait till one or two go up for sale.

I remember seeing that but it was back in may. There soon to be released, so how much time would you still say the need to rest Jere?

 

[Pantomimehorse]

Im in Spain at the end of Oct, I hope its out by then

Eric also did a review. They were fantastic when really fresh but then turned sick. It has been another 6 months since then so maybe another 6 and they will start coming out. I will try another in 6 more months to see how they are progressing.

No sorry I haven't been back since the festival and won't be till middle of november. This year is wierd for how late things are coming out most years the festival releases make it out for summer release not fall. Well I guess minus the Julieta's which I still have seen around and they were released at the festival before last. Posted via Mobile Device

the LCDH in teddington normally has some great cigars in stock and the owner is very accomodating. Rubbish internet sales though

 

[smokinpeace]

I just saw one vendor is now has the Cohiba, Hoya, and RA available (not pre-order). I did not confirm this with the vendor but it seems these might be starting to become available.

 

[Skitalets]

I just these pop up online. $600 per box! :sadpace:
