I'm glad everyone is enjoying this cigar. It is still for sale at the vendor who had Nestor Plasencia make it up, but the retails are relatively high for a cigar which is out of production. When I bought my first box some time ago, the quality of the cedar box, itself, told me there was probably something special inside. These boxes at Cigarbid are all very well aged and ready to smoke immediately. At $25 to $30 a box, you'd be hard pressed to find a better value. You'll note the cello covering the box, itself, is yellowed and brittle, indicating that these cigars have been mellowing for years. One quick note about the bellicoso shape on this cigar. It is extreme, which may cause some draw problems in a few cigars per box. The cap end is quite narrow. When I get one that is too tight, I dampen the wrapper to where the bottom of the band would be and cut it there, with a very sharp guillotine cutter. I now have a short bellicoso with about a 32 gauge cap end with a very light draw. If you like this cigar, be on the watch for what was billed as Nestor's crowning achievement...the brand was called "Crown Achievement" and is also out of production. Only one vendor, as of last week, to my knowledge, has these, and they are on deep, deep closeout. Run a google search. Steve*R
