One of my favorite cigars is being made again after it's initial run as a special limited release about 3-4 years ago.

They were supposed to hit the shpos late this month. Has anybody seen these yet at retailers in your area?

I would be up for a split of any of the three sizes or a trade of one size for another to compare with my old stash which I have been allocating myself about one every quarter.

I'll keep an eye out but doubt my area will see them before the interwebs.

The old release were called:

Don Rubio = Robusto
Elites = Toro
Acto Mayor = beli

I don't know if the new release will have the same names or not.

Not sure about the follow up but if they have the same Brazillian wrapper..........I'm all in.

Thanks to Al I have had three of the Acto Mayer so far. NO relation at all to the originals other than the name. Not a bad cigar but NONE of that rich flavor profile. Totally different wrapper leaf.

Long ago, at the other place, every now and again, I could score a special 4 pack of EPCs that included 3 excellent cigars, and one good one..................for $6.
There was a "Don" in that 4 pack, but can't remember which one...........and it was the best one.
