How about a thread that might inform the Inmates in the Asylum of cigars that are being or are about to be discontinued ?
OR
Start a discussion of the "word on the street" kind of news about certain cigars production coming to a end.

What made me think of this is I was just looking around on Famous and noticed in their Discontinued Closeouts page that the Hoyo De Monterrey Dark Sumatra are now listed there. One of my Favs.
A couple more examples I noticed 2 -3 months ago several on-line sellers were no longer showing Maria Guerrero in stock. Another nice smoke I hate to see go. And the RP Edge Sumatra are no longer available.

So if you hear of a brand or line that is ending let us know. It might be someones favorite and they could use the info to stock up before they disappear.

I really miss the CAO CX2

Oh God....where do I begin? :-)

Davidoff Special 53
Davidoff Diademas Finas
Davidoff 100th Anniversary Robusto
Avo LE 05
Avo LE 07

I think those are the saddest discontinuations for me (well, not so much "discontinuations" as they were a one-time, limited-release cigar, never to be made again :-)).

You can still find some of the 100th Anniversary Robustos here and there but they are dwindling fast. So, if you want any more, start working your way through the Yellow Pages...

Not quite on topic but two brands I haven't seen in ten years that I miss:

Mi Cubano (Nic.)
Canaria D'Oro (not just the roth mads you can find, but the entire line)

Good thread though.

JR online sells Marias!!! I think you get some free smokes w/ a box too.

Well if you are going to count limited release then I would also include the LFD salomon

I do miss the older pepin version of the Miami 8/11. Got an almost full box of the lanceros, and half boxes of the robustos and churhills.

I think the El Rico Habano Habano Clubs are discontinued. Those were great, IMHO. :-)

Esteban Carrera according to CI but I've seen them go in and out of stock several times since I first read that
[Reply]

They are now a Famous exclusive.

Pepin blend Padilla 1932 Signature is the only thing that pops into my head.
[Reply]

Cifuentes - the old blend (1980s-90s). On the milder side, but there was buttery texture and flavor to the smoke, with nuts. Wonderful.
