I take a first look at the Rafael González Perlas, a new release from Habanos SA. This Cigar will no doubt please smokers who likes small smokes that don't have a fifty plus ring gauge.
After the announcement by Christoph Wolters on this blog two days ago that the Trinidad brand had been discontinued, new news had come through that this wasn't true at all.
The news today that the Trinidad line is to be discontinued is not a great surprise. Ever since the announcement that Robusto T and Robusto Extra were to be discontinued this year the rumours had started to fly. So why has Trinidad been discontinued, and is the talk of the brand being re-launched a few years down line a feasible marketing move?
Habanos SA launches the Quintero Favoritos, a stout short filler Cigar with a hefty ring gauge. An interesting release, as it looks like Habanos are filling the gap in the market for a forty-five minute fifty ring gauge Cigar.
Now that the Bolívar Británicas is available for purchase, reviews of this Cigar have started to emerge. Here's a round-up of the video reviews available on the Internet.
The 2008 Regional Edition for France is a short, little Cigar that is mild in body but full of flavour. Four years of ageing has turned this Cigar into a mix of sweet and sour cherry.
This short, thirty minute Cigar was as inviting as they come. Dark and tasty, the Rafael González Perlas is a welcome addition to anyone's humidor.
Released in 2009, the Montecristo Open Range was seen a failure amongst many Cigar smokers. With two years of age, will the Montecristo Open Master fair any better?
The 2011 Regional Edition for Great Britain, the Bolívar Británicas is a fine looking Cigar, named after it's unique shape. Will this be a great Regional Edition, or will it just be another run of the mill Habanos Regional release?
