Have to give lots of credit to Diadema SPA for really innovating with the ERs. 

These look great--cool bands and one of my favorite vitolas;

Hmm... I really need it that! This classic long ER makes me want to purchase as many as possible I can afford! ?

Any Italian BOTL’s on the forum? Saw them for pre order for 950€. That seems like a pretty steep mark up to me. For 600€ , it’s a no brainer.

Well, a brother in Copenhagen can prove just as good ?

Wow, down right affordable for an ER, especially in that size and packaging. Even more Kudos to the distributor.

In Europe, from their beginning on, ERs are usually priced well within the regprod range. That has ever since been policy, and Regionals - still - are mainly seen as a speciality given to that particular market and its predilections. For smoking and enjoyment. And perhaps also as an instrument of appreciation for the distributor-producer relationship.

In order to balance additional lead costs going along with a special production run, as we know, there's a minimum amount that's to be commissioned by the distributor and to be paid upfront. But other than that, it still is just standard leaf, standard packaging (mostly). Why should there be any significant upcharge? Such pricing should be the norm, not the exception.

Often wonder about the PCC regular-regional pricing-gap in comparison. Yes, I am aware - because they can...

Kinda surprised I haven’t seen any mention of these on the forum. Thoughts? Feelings?

I have a feeling these are going to go fast...

I don't.

 

I visited Rome in the fall of 2018, and was told at the shop there that they had La Escepcion Don Jose (a 2015 regional) on the shelf until mid-2018.

 

Yes, the Man Tua is "only" 2500 boxes to the 4000 of the LEDJ, but these are much pricier 50 cabs. They'll be released slowly and will be around for at least a year. Let's not wad our panties over this.

The only stuff they don't mark up is their areas regionals... Cos they can't!! Good service in the shops and delivery, but the mark up on all the other regionals is eye watering. How they stay in business?? Easy, super profit margins supplying people who will pay for it!!

I met them in person in April.  Good guys. Beautiful store.  

Many people here lament the loss of B&M but yet they won’t support them. They are running a business and suggesting that they should be avoided for making a profit doesn’t make any sense.

You will see them come through from time to time on BR. I am pretty sure one went through a couple of weeks back.

Managed to find some, thanks to Signore Giappone.

It's a great vitola and smoke.

Love how Diadema S.P.A does the RE program!

I managed to have a box show up here on Maui recently, perhaps proving that even idiots get lucky sometimes ?
