Same size as the Diamond Crown #5 - 4 3/4 x 54

There are also Love Affairs and No.77 Sharks shipping in boxes!

Anyone know why they are doing this?

From what I heard, the sales guys told I presume Carlito and upper brass that they needed to cut loose with more regular production stuff and not just the Prometheus/ultra rare/expensive stuff. They're no dummies, they can see what's going on.

Thus, you get extra shipments of Anejos, 858 rosados, 858 sungrowns, the new Rosarios (Magnum R's), and three new sizes of Opus.

By the way, if anyone snags a box of Opus Sharks I've got a mountain of cash and cigars for you! I'd love to find a box of those.

"Has anyone seen these yet??"




The Rosado Gran Reserva boxes are similar to the Chateau Fuente Series box.

The Rosados are scheduled to be released late in January. From what I understand these will be a regular stock item. The limited amount of boxes floating around now are sort of a "teaser."

If you ask me it's the Fuente way. Put something out super rare that could be made out of reconstituted swisher sweets, with only 300 boxes made, and everyone will want them.

I think they do make good cigars but they seemed to be the worst about HTF stuff and the "yeah we made it once but not anymore" game.

So the Magnum "R" or Rosarios as they were formally know come in boxes of 25. Ring Gauges of 52, 54, and 56

Here is a pic of the 52.
