Anejo Release?

[stjohnroe]

Anyone fancy a box split, if so I'm in (pending price, obviously)?

The Fuente family does some weird stuff with all of their higher end stuff... Other than being able to order the "Curly Heads" (the lowest end Fuente cigars), retailers do not place an order - they get what they're shipped (Anejo's, Opus', special maduro's and other strange stuff). And there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it, other than they seem to like to hit the "high" times of cigar purchases (Father's day, X-mas, etc.).

A FOG once told me - "Patience, grasshopper"... That seems to work for me...

Oh, and BTW - for all of you guys out there - the biggest Anejo whore I know is AlexGTP... You gotta see that bastid drool when someone's got an Anejo in front of him... He's like a puppy with a Milk Bone!!!

The Fuente rep was in my buds shop last month. He said he could expect three to four boxes of Anejos as well as Hemi Maddies and Opus around Thanksgiving. After all that he passed out La Unica 500s.

Thanks for all the info guys... much appreciated.

You know, a few years back when I was just getting into cigars, the owner of the shop I still frequent the most was telling me that they didn't order 8-5-8's and such, they just arrived every now and then. Struck me as a bit odd, but makes more sense nowadays that I've discovered beauties like the Opus X's and Anejo's. I think the paper insert in the box of 8-5-8 maddies I just got this week sums it up: "We will never rush the hands of time"
