Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

I always look forward to this time of year so I can stock up on Anejo's, Hemmingway Maduro's and a few BTL's.

Does anyone know when they will be shipping orders to B&M's?

Also does anyone have a favorite they are looking forward to stock up on?

Not an Arturo Fuente favorite....but I snag a box of the Viaje Holiday Blend each year. Have done so since the original release in 2009. :dr :dr :dr

My local B&M already received a shipment of Opus X cigars two days ago, so the rest can't be far behind.

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

My B&M got some WOAM, but no Opus, BTL, Anejo. They are a few blocks from another "B&M" who has LE Fuentes on lock for some reason... I don't care too much for the "B&M", so they will be my last local stop to look for the Anejos

I can live without the Opus, but I grabbed a few WOAM and checking another B&M for Anejo later on this week.

Would love to get some Anejo's :tu

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

I've never had any of these. Where would the best place to find these be?

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

Pete,

I had great luck using Cigarking.com with the Anejo's last year. They are priced very well and they generally have all sizes available. Of course the 77's go first.

They tend to bundle them with a few other cigars, normally the house brand cigars, but their house brand cigars are quality cigars, so there's nothing to worry about, they aren't pawning junk off on you.

Thanks guys! I'll have to check it out!:tu

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

Watch the upcoming auction lots for a few Anejo 5ers. :D

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

Pete, in addition to the great suggestions above, maybe check at Stogie's on Grand there in St. Paul. They had received several vitolas of Opus X when I was there 3 weeks ago, but no BTL's, and I specifically asked.

Best regards,

Tallman

If he can see them.

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

Doh! :fp

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

The rest will be sometime next month. The shipment of Opus was a third shipment the Fuentes decided to release this year. It was supposed to come in early October/late September, but some shenanigans in customs ended up holding things up. There'll be one more shipment of Opus with all the other Christmas regulars, plus supposedly the beginnings of the 100th/Year One anniversary stuff(fingers crossed for Angels Share)

But on topic, I plan on getting as many Anejo 46s and Hemingway Maddies the bossman will let met get away with. :r

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

Thanks.

So, early December or late November. Cool.

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

1. Thanks for the heads up at SOG.
2. Are there some lots that only "high rollers" can see or something?

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

Seen somebody sell a box of Sharks last week, so I called my B&M. They said early Decenber as usual, and she will have my box put aside.

They still have a lot of last years. All different sizes if anyone is looking I could check into it for you. I believe they were between 10-15 depending on size.

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

If you can see the auction section, you should be able to see everything in there.

Re: Arturo Fuente Holiday Release
 

Stogies on Grand will get some for the holiday season, they might have already, I don't go there too much anymore so I'm not sure. Also Tobacco Grove in Maple Grove had a surprising amount of rarer Fuente products last I was there, it's been a couple months since I was in the store though so I can't comment on current stock.

Does this mean you'll be reviewing the candy cane for us? :noon
