Ha I asked for those and La Trova everywhere I went and no luck. They had Vigia singles at Hotel Nacional but the only boxes were Reyes at Melia Habana and Coloniales at the airport on the way out. So I just returned yesterday from a week there. Went to the cigar shop at Nacional 3 times. Each time the door was wide open and I walked in. On one occasion there were mastercases in there.. Took a mastercase picturewhile in their humidor. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Monterey Posted August 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2019 Not a bad haul from Cuba. 2 Cabs of HDM DC were my most sought after. Plus Sir Winstons, Monty 80th (almost a box via singles) 2 bundles from Alex (Siglo VI and Puntilla) , 2 Leyandas, 2 La Trovas, Punch La Isla, H. Upman 2 and Famoso. Only thing I didn't get was Fundadores. Couldn't find them anywhere. Plus the infamous ash tray. Gone to cuba many times, but never grabbed the ash tray. Finally did. 18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the isla and Trova hard to find? Hopefully they weren’t hiding and you had to bribe them Nice on the HDM DC!! And punch DC cabs around?

Hotel Nacional had a ton of them as did the comodoro. Comodoro has the early ones, already a year old. Box numbers were like 500 out of 10k. Hotel nacional's were numbers in the 9k's and were just a few months old. But again, I saw them at every single LCDH. La Trovas were harder. They were not on display anywhere. Had to ask and they "found" them in the backrooms. Punch DC's were around in 25 box. One of the stores had a cab of 2018. I was so tempted to get it. Didn't have the room, plus I have a lot of Punch cabs. Got one of those 2018 cabs back in my January trip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mtapia3 Posted November 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2019 This was a quick 3 day trip and as always, I wish I had more time for cigar hunting. The overall cigar selection was not bad this time around. The following is a list of the stores I visited with some of the standout boxes I saw at each one. Habana Libre LCDH: - Cabs of Lusi's and HDM DC's - Per usual, they only sold the rare stuff in singles (Talisman, Monte 80th, La Trova, Connie B, HU Propios, Sir Winnie, Siglo Vl, Espys, Cohiba Maduro) Hotel Nacional LCDH: - Partagas Maduro No. 2 (Only 2 boxes) Partagas LCDH: - Tons of SCDLH Torreon Conde Villanueva LCDH: - MC 1935 Dumas & Maltes 5ta Avenida LCDH: - Party E2 (Only place I found in 25 ct) - HDM Escodigos (2 boxes) Palacio de la Artesania: - HU Propios (2 boxes) - 1935 Leyenda - Trinidad Fundadores * Don't skip on this shop. Just as good if not better than most LCDH's. Boxes that were plentiful in most shops: - Punch La Isla - QDO 50 & 54 (54 only in 10s) - Punch DC in dress boxes - HDM Rio Seco & San Juan (10s & 25s) - Bolivar Libertador - Monte Especial - R&J Tacos - SCDLH Torreon Boxes that were nowhere to be found: - La Trova -Connie B's - Sir Winnies - QDO Coronas - VR Unicos (Only 1 or 2 boxes of Famosos seen in a couple of the shops) - Party 898's - LGC No.4 - Partagas Salamones Per usual, no Behike or Reservas and Cohiba was only available in the smaller sizes in most shops. * Santiago 11 was widely available this time around. On the other hand, coffee bags seemed to be in short supply. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we were there the same time. I was there Mon-Wed. On your list. Sir Winstons were there (I got 2 boxes). VR Unicos were there. A few conny B's and a fair amount of Cohiba Robusto.

I'll admit, my head was a bit cloudy from the copious amounts of rum, so it's very possible I missed a few things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the date because a (very rare) F4 Tornado ripped thru a couple of hours after I went back to Miramar. When I was back in October, there were none of those 50 cabs to be found. I was pretty underfunded on the January trip. It will take me 10/12 months to pay off this last one... ?

No Sir Winnie’s to be found. I hit Old P factory, Atmosphere, Conde V, M Libre, M Cohiba, Nacional and 5th Ave, with SW’s at the top of my list. What a difference a day makes...
