I don't think they are in the states yet...
Your right.
I actually just got a email from Schwartz today about the Opus 22 set/2011 Fuente Humidors and Serie B AND read the fine print - they are pre-order only.
Here is a copy from the email,
The God of Fire Serie B takes the same filler/binder blend from the Fuente's original God of Fire line but replaces the wrapper with either a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro or an Ecuadorian Sun Grown. The God of Fire Serie B Gran Toro has the Connecticut Broadleaf and the God of Fire Serie B Robusto Gordo has the Ecuadorian Sun Grown. Single cigars and boxes of ten are up for Pre-Order now.

For what it is worth, I was told they would arrive in the State this week, then go into storage to acclimate for an unknown period of time...But I would imagine they would like them out before Xmas...

For some reason, I just don't see myself getting really excited about these. I love both of the regular God of Fire blends, but the maduro wrapper (and I guess to a lesser extent the sungrown wrapper) just doesn't appeal to me. For good Fuente maduros, I'd just as soon grab two Anejos for the price of one GOF. I've had mixed experiences with God of Fire sticks too, in terms of construction and consistency, which is weird, being Fuente made. I don't generally like complaining about pricing of cigars, since they are luxury, handmade products, and it is what it is, and they don't owe me anything, but again, when the MSRP on Opus and Anejo is 10-15 dollars a piece, and the GOF offers what I consider to be a similar smoking experience, for twice that... I just don't bother typically.
I just got a email from Jack Schwartz saying these are in store now.
Cut and paste from email....
The new God of Fire Serie B is in the shop. These are the cigars everyone has been waiting for. They only made two sizes in this new blend; the 6 x 56 Gran Toro and the 5 1/2 x 54 Robusto Gordo. The wrapper leaf is different for each cigar. The Gran Toro has a Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro while the Robusto Gordo features a dark Ecuadorian Sun Grown.
Single cigars and boxes of ten are available in both sizes. We also received the 2011 God of Fire Assortments. This is a great collection that lets you experience all the God of Fire blends. The God of Fire Serie B Collector's Jars should be here by the end of next week.
