Crash712us Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I've smoke 2 so far, I bought box and one single. The single had a darker wrapper then the ones in the box, and it was extremely good. Very sweet, notes of honey and wheat. Was absolutely amazed that it was so good being so young. 2nd one from the box wasn't as good but still great. In time these will be amazing cigars. 1
shlomo Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 What I have smoked has been bleh. Very bleh. Oddly I am very happy I got what I got and no more.... Now if anybody has the Diplo Cuba re....those I will chase.

Now if anybody has the Diplo Cuba re....those I will chase. What I've smoked of the 898 have been good and show some good potential. At least these are available at about market price unlike the Excelencia which already has seen a 2-3x markup from local price outside Cuba.....

Not really possible for me to know what "potential" means. Still, if you like them, great. Im very happy I dont.

danny Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 Had my first one this week after receiving them a couple of weeks ago. These are fantastic. One of the better RE's I've had in quite some time. Absolutely love the blend. Theres the hint of the Selectos Finos but much more manageable in comparison. Almost like a Diplo meets a Boli w/ a hint of a Monte 2
dangolf18 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 What is the going price for the La Escepcion Selectos Finos?
Lotusguy Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 What is the going price for the La Escepcion Selectos Finos? Approaching 1k/box.
Habano Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Approaching 1k/box. Good god. Seriously? I know some idiot on OLH tried to flip a box for I think $1200 a few months ago and many laughed at him. Surely someone didn't buy it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
dangolf18 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Approaching 1k/box. Thanks. Interesting. Personally I think they are a $25-$30 cigar. $1k is pretty crazy, but it's a sellers market I guess.
rckymtn22 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Well they are out of production, so not a big surprise.
Lotusguy Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Good god. Seriously? I know some idiot on OLH tried to flip a box for I think $1200 a few months ago and many laughed at him. Surely someone didn't buy it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I had a buyer at $950 and decided to keep the box when I got sellers remorse. 1
Lotusguy Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Thanks. Interesting. Personally I think they are a $25-$30 cigar. $1k is pretty crazy, but it's a sellers market I guess. Even the new ones are already going for $25/ea.
Habano Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I had a buyer at $950 and decided to keep the box when I got sellers remorse. Yeah doubt I'll be selling any of my 13.5 boxes I've got left. One of my top cigars and regionals. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
dangolf18 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Even the new ones are already going for $25/ea.True. They'll probably go to $700 a box in a year or two (just my guess). I'm going to sample one this weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Hoepssa Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 My business trip in Milano met the Christmas time....stores closed. oops
wolfain Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Good god, the price. Where can I find singles on these? Anyone ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
bugman78629 Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Just being a little silly..... But going to Fire one-up this weekend 2
kuma Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Where can I get some. If in the know please PM me. I'm heading to Menton France in March about a mile from Italy on the Riviera. Nearest town / city is San Remo just over the border. I'm hoping I can locate a cigar shop there. Hope I'm not to late for the Italian RE's. In the mean time again if anyone is willing to advise as to where I can find some now please contact me. Thanks.
MooseAMuffin Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Being new, not in the know and from the US, how does one go about getting regional releases/limited editions? Do you pretty much have to know someone from and LCDH or travel to that country? If people don't want to put their recommendations on display, feel free to message me. I'd just like to know some strategies going forward on the releases. Everything I've read in this cigar says I'm missing out and I'd like to avoid that in the future!
eswary Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 A lot a great cigars out there your missing by "chasing"...#cigarGame Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
dangolf18 Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Can we perhaps keep this thread to about the actual cigar, instead of the morality of flipping?? 3
