Rumour has it that the Montecristo Linea 1935 will be released in April after a launch event in Spain. It has been pretty hyped since its reveal at Festival del Habano roughly a year ago.

What do you guys think, will it live up to the hype? They do look beautiful... Reminds me of the Behike in a way.Montecristo-Linea-1935-vitolas.jpg

Couple ballas I know who smoked the "pre release" gave them very good reviews.
Interesting... Final release shouldn't be much different. If I'm not mistaken this will be a new line and not just an exclusive? Perhaps the price will be reasonable

These look stupid af. The early reviews I've heard haven't been particularly great and two of the three sizes are dumb. 5.5 x 49, wtf is that? And I'm sure the Dumas size will carry a significant premium over a box of Edmundos and comes with 5 less in a box. I'd try the Maltes due to the sobresalientes vitola, but I'm not expecting much. I'm sure the fact that they have 3 bands will generate a hype shitstorm though, I'd love to see some pricing info.

I think since they're a regular release theyll definitely be less than $45 to $55. After all, you can grab a box of Monte 80ths for a tad over $500 after euro conversion and shipping. Since the Leyenda is the exact same size, I'm imagining it'll be priced similarly. Although after Rob sells out a couple times, I fully expect him to jack the price up. I expect the Dumas to eventually find their way to grey market vendors priced in the low $300s. Still, about the same amount of tobacco as an Edmundo, 5 cigars less per box and $80+ more expensive.

I'd shell out a fat $10 bill for one.
I have a bundle of pre-release, no bands though. A friend of a friend has a cousin in Florida that has relatives in Cuba and one of them is a roller in the Laquita factory and she gets these all the time. Reply to this post with your addy and credit card info and I'll send you a couple. I won't charge you until you smoke them.
