They should become available at the end of the year.

Triple bands

Cant wait to get my hands on these

Interesting, however I'm not sure I like the band at the foot. Are these regular production releases?

[cigarmo]

Yes regular production. I like the foot band stops it getting damaged

[Shaun]

Damn, looking more like NC every day lol

[gojira]

Yes, they should be regular production. The Linea 1935 line will be the strongest cigars in the Monte lineup. They will come in boxes (of ? cigars) that will have the same look as the 80th Anniversario ones. I believe (due to those fancy boxes) that they will have a hefty price-tag once released.

I don't like the look of the 80th Anniversario boxes. I tried one of them in January and didn't fancy it a lot.

[Alexw33]

Well at least it's practical, I'll probably get used to it it's just not something I've seen on a CC before. Does anyone know if the band at the foot is a first?

They look like they will be expensive but I definitely look forward to trying all three.

[handlebarpipe]

Maybe, one day, I might be able to try one of these.

Really looking foward to these!

[mcdee]

I think Cohiba have used a band at the foot on some of their recent 50th anniversary releases.

65 RG?!

[Manning]

65 RG?!

I was thinking the same

[the pondering moose]

65 RG?!

No kidding. If it was a short stick, maybe, now and again. But that's straight up jawbreaker.

[Shaun]

Typo! Its a 55rg. Still stupidly large.

Corrected.
