H. Upmann Half Coronas tins of five cigars - going out of production

[Sean]

Thats a lovely looking tin shame about discontinuing

[butternutsquashpie]

It wasn't cute when I first bought it; front and back nearly obscured with stickers. Lots of picking and some iso-propyl alcohol later and it now looks spiffy

Wow you're off well.
I have a Montecristo Swiss-made Cuban-Puro tin with a Canadian health sticker.
Since it's made of metal, they laser printed a heart on it. One graphic picture of a human heart.
All the alcohol and elbow grease in the world can't remove it. I'll take pictures when I'm Home.

Having been to Cuba and seen all the scrap laying around I find it hard to believe they have a shortage of metal.

I don't think the tins are made in Cuba. I may be wrong, but the new Vegeros look to be tin lid and base with a cori-card body.

Do they really think the damned stickers do any good? I once went into a paper shop with a mate who wanted to buy cigarettes and when the girl behind the counter handed him a pack with the 'smoking causes impotence' sticker on it he handed it back and asked for a pack with 'smoking kills' on it. As far as I know he's still alive AND shagging.

We could be worse though. Have a look what has happened to the poor Aussies with there cigarette and cigar packing all drab olive green plastered with stickers and brand name so small you need glasses to read what it is

One of my favourite smokes and I have a couple of empty tins but they have always been hard to find any shops I asked in Germany always said they flew out the door as quick as they came in. Bit strange them to be discontinuing them due to metal shortage as the re-introduction of the Vegueros line is all in tins

It's a cute little tin. Find one and refill.

never seen one anyway and at the price you can grab 25 for and the shortage of the metal in Cuba I can see why they're getting rid
