HSA will reinruduce the Partagas Capitols into their line-up

[gojira]

As the title says. Supposedly there is more to come (back?) in the future. They will come in "retro" tins containing 5 cigars.

Apology for the typo in the title.

Lovely. Look forward to these. Hope it doesn't take a few years to see them!

[Simon Bolivar]

Interesting indeed, let's hope the quality matches our expectations. The R&J Julietas in lovely tins were awful IMHO.

[JoeyGunz]

I like the romanticism.
Hope it's not another novely.

I like the idea of re introduction of old discontinued sticks. Hopefully the serie du connaisseur might make a comeback

+1 for that suggestion.

I'd love to see some of the old classics revived.. (and the trend for ridiculous, gob-stopper sized, ring gauges reversed).

Exactly, bring back the long skinnies..

Very nice. Even though I don't smoke I wouldn't mind a tin each of those.

One of my favourite old sticks. Long gone. Is the Ninfas! I keep eye on the auctions in case a few come up. Missed some recently IIRC

[Simon Bolivar]

Yes, the Nifas were a great vitola, Punch very hard to find now but QdO still about. Other skinnies, Panatela Largos, Elegentes, Party Con. 1,2&3 all wonderful sticks, still have a box of No3's & a few No1 & 2's left. Doubt we'll ever see large scale comeback but selected re-release might just garner fav with the older & traditional C.A.'s.

I'm having a hard time finding a box of these. I managed to purchase a fiver off a German collector earlier this year but that's all that I've managed to find.
