Lotusguy Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 New Portuguese RE - Boli Lusíadas: Re-banded unsold RG88 inventory, from the pics of the sticks I’ve seen Pray that this is not the case 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cfc1016 Posted April 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2018 Just fired one up ROTT. Really nice light and ‘good green’ as i think i heard someone put it. I like this. At ~half the price of a pc, i could see these being daily rotation sticks. I sure do miss the Boli Demi Tasse though... edit: @El Presidente - any of those old Boli Demi Tasse lyin around anywhere?? ?? 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotusguy Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 They r priceyFrom what I know, basically the exact same price as RG88 when converted from Euros (don’t use the inflated resale pricing offered on FB and certain websites).Mhmm - the plot thickens.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, let's be serious here! All joking aside, and even though I've only seen half a dozen boxes of RG88, wrappers on these seem considerably lighter, so I'd be tempted to say it's not the same cigar, but the proof is indeed in the pudding, and so I'll be lighting up one of each very soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While HSA aren't going to be passing on unsold stock into other REs, I do find it strange that there has been a sudden surge in Britanicas being rolled for RE's. the Lusiadas, RG 88 and now the UK are about to release a Britanicas for their RE this year. Some may be interested to note that the UK are releasing a El Rey Del Mundo lancero for their RE next year. What has happened to all the Ramon Allones super fat robustos!?

I can only think they are doing this for minimum disruption. i.e "make them a little longer boys" Cant help but think its the only marca, that doesn't need a long skinny. But credit due, where credit due, every bit of diversity HSA give us, we should be thankful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I made a mistake in my original post, the RE for this year is the LGC Britanicas; next year it will be an El Rey Del Mundo lancero. I can't think of a lancero ever being used for an RE before?

Enjoy them in great health buddy. You bringing one out on Sunday or letting them rest? The above is precisely why I didn't bother to peel the box. Provenence is legit. Box code, shmox code. Wait till that stick blows your socks off. It's a stunner. I forgot to tell you there's a 3 cigar finders fee. ???? See you Sunday bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
