JY0 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I found this on a blog belonging to an LCDH. I wonder if it is accurate... 'We know this since years - unpopular cigars and cigars not selling in sufficient quantities are taken off productionby the Cuban state monopole Habanos S.A.. Sometimes it’s nothing that makes the cigar community cry - but in some cases the discontinuation is hard to understand, to say the least. See what will be eliminated this year: Cohiba Lanceros in pack of 5 Cuaba Diademas Cuaba Generosos Upmann Magnum 46 in Cab of 50 Upmann Magnum 50 in Cab of 50 Hoyo Epicure Especial in Cab of 50 Hoyo des Dieux in Cab of 25 Hoyo du Gourmet in Cab of 25 Jose Pieda Nacionales in packs of 5 and bundles of 25 Juan Lopez Petit Coronas Juan Lopez Seleccion No.2 in Cab of 50 La Gloria Cubana Inmensos (!) La Gloria Cubana Medaille d’Or No. 2 Monte No. 3 in packs of 3 Monte Tubos Partagas 8-9-8 in bxs of 10 Partagas Coronas Junior Tubos in packs of 3 Quai d’Orsay Imperiales Romeo Exhibicion No.3 Saint Luis Rey Double Coronas Saint Luis Rey Serie A San Cristobal El Moro."

Perla Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 If this is your source: http://www.thecigars...com/blog/?p=432 I would be carefully. Carefully may too harsh may be mindful fits better. This was the guy who had released the rumor the Trinidad line will be deleted. But if the rumor will be confirmed it will hit me pretty hard, some of my fav. are on it.

mm12 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I can't understand their logic here. They do intermittent production runs on LGC MdO 2. Every time the cigars hit the market, they sell out everywhere within weeks. They could raise the price by 30 bucks and still sell out within weeks. It seemed like the no. 2 was a perfect example of a better way of dealing with well-liked cigars that don't appeal to the masses. And why would they delete the entire line except for the no. 4? I'm sure they're not selling any more of those than the 2s or Inmensos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassman Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 If true, SLR will only have Regios left & QdeO only Coronas. Might as well just ax the entire brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazolaman Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Well, looks like the end for the rapidly disappearing LGC range. I've heard they are going to roll the unused tobacco in to a 80 gauge special, with three bands that costs £80 each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmac77 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 These ones are hard for me to take, Some of them are not a surprise as the the writing has been on the wall for some time. La Gloria Cubana Inmensos (!) Damn!!!) La Gloria Cubana Medaille d’Or No. 2 (Eff'n mo fo idiots!!$%^&^&^& ) Monte Tubos (surprised at this one as they seem to sell pretty good in Cuba) Quai d’Orsay Imperiales (double damn!) Saint Luis Rey Double Coronas (my second favorite DC after the Punch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangolf18 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Sad to see the SLR DC and SLR Serie A go. Also, HDM Des Dieux, can't believe they are discontinuing those. Not sad to see the others go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigarsdelcuba Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 again i see this is pure rumors as I have personally seen lists from habanos for upcoming stock offers and all of these cigars are still on offers going forward... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riazp Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 if this list is accurate, its typical habanos. Axing another corona gorda from production...mdo 2s as well...qdo imperiales? shame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Presidente Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I wouldn't be getting too concerned just yet. We would need to have confirmation from at least three sources. So far I have received nothing but will try to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perla Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 A Swiss blog wrote that the information came through the 5th Avenue in Germany. http://cigars.premium-blog.ch/files/2013/07/Habanosstreichliste.jpg I am waiting if it will be confirmed from other sources.

kuzi16 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 what an annoying list. i can think of a few that i want to try that are on that list, a few i love and a few packaging decisions that i disagree with. SLR Serie A and San Cristobal El Moro are two i still want to try HdM Des dieux cab of 25 is annoying because i dont always have room for a 50cab to sit in my humidor for the 5 years it takes for those to be good. but im ok with a cab of 25. LGC MdO 2 is always sold out. how can this not be selling? if they only make a small amount, then only a small amount is sold. iduno... i hope the list is incorrect.

Dbone Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 The items I currently purchase or own on this list is the JL2 50 cab, SLR A and hoyo des dieux. The des dieux would be surely missed. I have no idea if todays would age like the '03's, in hopes they would I'd stock up. Speaking like Rob, that's one sexy cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
