    Aww :( Looks like it'll be expensive, then, if it's B&M only. Hopefully, Alex and the Beard have some in offline that we can get.

    Don't think they are out yet. The only reviews I've seen have been of samples from the trade show.

    I had asked a B&M last week of August and they told me 2 weeks. I emailed them today evening, maybe get a response tomorrow. Just want to purchase from ccom...

    Pretty sure Alex has said Ccom will have some; I asked Kelly on Saturday, and it seems Ccom is still waiting on the shipments as well

    ^agreed. I think Alex said that because it is a B&M only, they will only be able to sell them via phone/email, and not actually list them on the website. Which means more stock for those of us who know to call/email.

    I asked in my B&M today about these and I was told they would call about it tomorrow and have my answer by Wednesday... I'm hoping for some good news! I haven't been more excited about a cigar EVER!

    Just spoke to the distributor. The first shipment from the factory left last week and they are expected in Miami this week. They have a big list of backorders but they are being filled and shipped to wholesale customers who ordered them. Could start to appear out there as late as early this week. I know I will have mine by this Friday I believe.

    Those are the Liga Privada No 9, Its called flying pig. Its been out for over a year I believe. Just hard to get a hold of. Ccom had em for like 2 days and then were sold out. I've never had one myself either, so I'm waiting again...

    There are T-52 Pigs coming out...

    i like the t52 robustos... i might get a couple of the flying pigs just to have around but overall not a big fan of 60/60+ ring gauge cigars... and if i remember correctly the flying pigs should be in around mid october?

    They had em here and were sold out already.

    November is what the DE rep told me about the t52 pig, can't recall the exact date, but he said it's really good.

    I just finished 5+5 San Lotano. I am not very experienced smoker but smoke a lot of cigar from all over the world. I would say- if you have this cigar look nowhere. Exceptional cigar with great value. I like the Habano the best but Maduro one is good too. I have a full box of Padron 1926 40 years anniversary. As long as I have San Lotano Maduro I don't need that so-called special Padron. I am talking about actual value not about overhyped Padron 1926. Life is too short to stick with over hyped cigars like Opus X, Padron family reserve. Don't get me wrong, they are good cigar. If I really want to spend some bucks then it is worth to spend money for Graycliff edicion limitada. I am getting annoyed with cigar aficinado's overhyped rating now a days. Talking about great 25 cigar means more advertisement for the magazine. I would like to thank Tim for educating me how to smoke properly with good value.

    I liked the maduro more than the habano - and that's rare for me, as I typically don't like Maduro. However, the Padron 80th Anniversary is by far the best cigar I've ever smoked. It's expensive, but it's one of the few premiums that lives up to the price tag. I haven't yet tried the 40th Anniversary though.

    You have to phone C.com and ask for them. That's the only way to get them.
