And I thought the Partagas SEN2 was ok! (Just not amazing)

Ok maybe im a little harsh but it is OK but thats i cant even class it as a regular goto stick thats just relaxing and pleasant to smoke.

In the end its a ?20 waste of money because for the same price i could of had a fantastic 8-9-8 V or a magnum 46 or a dip 2 and still had change to spare for something els.

Your description would have been accurate for the horrendous PSD5 tho (not ?20 but still...)

[Reaver2145]

Your right i was wrong havnt had the S E NO2 yet i was thinking about PSD5 but still for ?13 you can get far better smokes.

I blame beer and partagas for my mistake

PS. you can still get a magnum 46 for the same money.

50 Cabs too have taken another bashing. Not that I've ever been able to afford one, but I can understand how they would be the best medium for 'ageing' and all things considered are possibly more space saving than buying 2 x 25s.

Bol?var Petit Corona SLB50
H. Upmann Magnum 46 SLB50 and Magnum 50 SLB50
Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure Especial SLB50
Saint Luis Rey Regios SLB50 and Serie A SLB50


Trini Fundi 12s have also gone .... Reyes next year .... please NO.

Seeing those first three means im off to go cry in a corner.

I mean really BPCs are amazing the 46s are amazing HDMEE are pretty good too and all of them must be good sellers so why remove them.

Fundis are like a lanceros just consistently better and reyes they better not.

Surely that then means that the Trini range will be ......erm....nothing.

"AAANNNND introducing the Trinidad fresh air edition for 2013!"
Bolivar PC seems crazy to me

It occurs to me to wonder how much stock of these cigars is sitting ageing nicely in H&F's warehouse/Humidor thingy. No one in their right mind would get rid of something that was selling really well...

Interesting point Nic.
I've already commented elsewhere that this is the identical list, from a year ago, of the "Habanos to be Deleted in 2011".
Perhaps that notice didn't produce the sales stimulus that the distributors were hoping for, so they are trying again this year.

BTW, the Bolivar CE was first tagged for 'removal' in 2009.

Stagnetto's had boxes of ages ones - I grabbed two x 10. Fecking lovely they are. Might have one tonight!

Punting around. I can only find these with one vendor I would trust.

ADVICE. If you've got some, hang on. If you find some, do a Deano .... grab 'em!
