squizz Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Saint Luis Rey Tesoros – RE 2016 – Petit Edmundo - Espana They are shipping soon. [/IMG]
Corylax18 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Wow, minus one word those look eerily similar to the Cuban release. Creativity abounds! Two SLR regionals in the same year sized 52 x 110 and 54 x 150. What mind boggling new size is next, maybe we get lucky and they'll roll one at 53 x 130. How do they come up with it, I dont know how Ive been living without these! Rant over. Fortunately the Marquez were relatively affordable on release in November. $11-$12 each, but relatively underwhelming flavor wise. Any info on pricing for the Espana regional?

Puros Y Vino Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 I'm getting tired of these short robustos. Wrapper leaf stocks must be really low given how many of these are in play. 2
Popular Post ChanceSchmerr Posted February 3, 2017 Popular Post Posted February 3, 2017 Y'know, the length is fine - just make it a 40 or 42 RG and it'd probably be a hell of a smoke! I've always wanted either an SLR Perla or an SLR Lancero..... 5
PigFish Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 ... problem solved, smoke the SLR A. These should come with an explosive and a picture of Groucho Marx on the box!!! -the Pig 1

Lotusguy Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 That makes three Petit Robusto in Spain in the last few years. RA Caprichos, ERDM PR and now this. Boooooring. That said, I'll try some. They are making 15k boxes so expect them to be around for quite a while. 2

You'd think they would have learned after the 12K RA Grandes boxes (which was a stellar cigar, to be fair) lasted for years on the shelves..... 1

They made 7.500 boxes of last year's ElRdM PRs, and most shops I visited in Barcelona and Madrid sold out pretty quickly.
wabashcr Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 If I had access to these at 80 euro, I'd buy quite a few of them. Same with the Marquez.
dangolf18 Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 What's up with all these short fatties (rhetorical question ). Give me some lonsdales for Pete's sake! 2
jrusso14 Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 I wouldn't mind giving these a shot. I don't mind the size and the price is "fair" I guess. Looking forward to seeing the initial reviews.
strikethebox7 Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Very interested to hear how these little guys smoke. I actually enjoy the shorter format for a quick on the go smoke, hoping to hear these are flavor bombsSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
canadianbeaver Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Have mentioned this a couple of times. The Regional shorty is getting on my nerves. Love a symbol of my travels, or a cigar in a park or harbour side. But inflate the price and premature ashtray expiry? Meh. CB 1
dangolf18 Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Burning time is dependent on the length of the cigar, not the width. With the amount of tobacco that goes into a short fatty, the could've made a corona or lonsdale, no? What a waste. The SLR brand is uninspiring as a whole also. Never been blown away from current production. 1
Lotusguy Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Smoked one yesterday. Obviously, very young, but construction was good and I enjoyed the flavors. Smoked over an hour on it. I already liked it better than the ERDM PR from last year. I messed up the wrapper towards the end while removing the band 2
torsion Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Anyone been to Barcelona lately? My colleague is flying there tonight and asking me what to get! Which shops have had stocks of RE? PM me please!!
