Obviously we have different interpretations of the end of the month and what was said. You have connections and have a clearer timeline but you could try looking at it from my perspective where my knowledge is limited to things said in this thread. Nobody said "the last day of the month" they said end of the month which implies a window of time, which to me the 20th is within that window; certainly worth a post asking.

I think they are not in the market yet. When I see one I will post here, OK?

This will be released in Spain at the end of the month. The Jar contains 30 Monte No.3 ("aged" minimum 5 years) and will be limited to 1500. The cost is €300.

A nice jar.

Shoot man, if you're in Boston take a flight over to Spain and pick some up. What is it 8 hour flight.

I dont know if you are serious or not but it's doable. One can spend a weekend in the old continent not spending a lot.

Yes, I am being serious. I took flights out of Dubai just to fly over and pick some things up in Spain and spent a couple of days after just being a tourist before flying back I have done this a couple of times. Hell if I wasn't on a Tourist visa for my company now, if I leave I have to start the process over to get residency, I would fly back over there now.

Sure, I wasn't trying to stir the pot. I was just genuinely curious if anybody had gotten their hands on one and stir up some discussion. I'd love to see yours when you get it though!

Yeah, that won't quite work both budget and time constraints. Moving, changing jobs, traveling for work, a ton going on unfortunately.

Ahhh, then a lesson in Cuba-speak is evidently called for :) It will be out of the ordinary if "end of May" actually ends up even being in May at all...more like June at best, December just as likely. To say that HSA release dates are flexible is an understatement. HTH

Hahahahaha, incredibly good point. I'm somewhat familiar with HSA speak, had interpreted the May release as what we were expecting, not the HSA estimate :) I think if HSA was the one that said May id probably be looking for them next Jan. Kind of like those Monte 80th from last year.....

But is it an HSA release?

According to my source they should arrive this week at the stores.

Yep, on Friday.

The cigars look box pressed - I guess they were repacked from regular dress boxes into the jars?

Of coarse but is anyone really buying this jar for the cigars?

Of course how else can one get Montecristo no.3?

I think box-pressed is good. The cigars are more likely out of dress boxes than cardboard 5-packs.

Very true, specially since the absence of boxcodes or dates in the jars implies it's simply overstock of the Spanish distributor (the MC #3 is far from a bestseller), and they decided to try and move the stock through a LE jar. After all, we're talking about 54k cigars with at least 5 years on them, so it was indeed a considerable stock.
