Pretty interesting and eye opening thread John. I was surprised how much I've slowly accumulated since getting back into CC about 2yrs ago. I've smoked a ton sampling everything I could. Now that I know what I want/like I doubt I'll stray too far from the path.

My percentages of Trinidad and Sancho Panza are about to balloon..

64/ 18% Diplomatico

62/ 17% Partagas

42/ 12% Por Larranaga

48/ 13% Bolivar

33/ 9% Ramon Allones

22/ 6% ERDM

18/ 5% Punch

17/ 4% Sancho Panza

17/ 4% SLR

12/ 3% Trinidad

6/ 1% HUpmann

3/ 1% RyJ

3/ 1% SCDH

Total: 348

**edit, forgot to enter total**

Bits and bobs as of this writing...

17 members have weighed in so far, 16 provided quantities totaling over 20,000 cigars.

Going by simple averages of everyone's percentages, 7 marcas have so far accounted for at least 10% of holdings: what I term "well-represented marcas":

1) H. Upmann - 13.9%

2) Cohiba - 13.4%

3) Partagas - 11.4%

4) Montecristo - 11.4%

5) Ramon Allones - 10.5%

6) Por Larranaga - 10.4%

7) Bolivar - 10.3%

Taking everyone's quantities into account, the aggregate holdings are much more diversified, and the "well-represented marcas" list drops to only 3:

1) Partagas - 11.1%

2) H. Upmann - 10.3%

3) Ramon Allones - 10.0%

The least well-represented marcas are Quintero (with 0 sticks declared), Vegueros (3), Jose L. Piedra (18), Cuaba (21), Fonseca (46), Edmundo Dantes (65), and Rafael Gonzalez (77).

The average number of marcas represented in a respondent's humidor is 14.

Are we going to do this every week?

I don't know exactly how many cigars I have.

Most represented marca

1. Montecristo

2. Partagas

3. Ramon Allones

No Piedras, Guantanameras or Quinteros. All other marcas present.

Haha! jester.gif Counting each week would be something! I wanted to thank everyone who has contributed to this thread as the goal of it was to gather empirical data to support the fact that we, as cigar collectors/enthusiasts have a greater percentage of some Multi-Local/Local brands than general Habanos annual sales indicate.

To expound further, Bolivar and Ramon Allones probably account for 1-2% of sales for Habanos S.A, annually. In our humidors, these two marcas (at the time of this post) are in our top 7 represented brands! Ramon Allones is in the Top 3! And this comes despite 3 regular production cigars (for Ramon Allones)!

I thought that H.Upmann, Partagas, Montecristo and Cohiba would be in the top 5, but I was surprised to see how high Ramon Allones was. Currently there are 182 regular production cigars and 116 of them are spread amongst the 7 Global brands (Cohiba, H.Upmann, Hoyo de Monterrey, Jose L. Piedra, Montecristo, Partagas, Romeo y Julieta). The next time someone says to Rob Ayala, "Ramon Allones, Bolivar or Por Larranaga are small, minor brands...they don't sell well, or aren't as high-profiled as Montecristo etc..." he can now counter them and say, "actually, our members on FoH have a greater representation of those marcas than Hoyo de Monterrey and Romeo y Julieta!"

True John our collective taste is vastly different from other target demographics.

But I think both positions are valid.

Rob knows his clientele well, at partly insofar as what they buy from him.

HSA knows what they sell world-wide and as such are also correct.

In the end HSA are correct fir the general sales, but Rob can secure us sufficient supply of the sticks we appreciate.

Montecristo, Partagas, H Upman, RYJ, Bolivar, RA, Quintero, PL/JL/Dip in roughly that order. Monte definitely is the leader in total boxes.

It is raining here and I was bored before the good football started.  Out of an inventory of 2,573 cigars mine break down like this:

Evidently, I am a sucker for HDM and Upmann.

@Bohn007 GIIT, I know you have the data.
