Back on topic:

mrtelcom, the picture with the 858sg Rosada (red foot) and the black foot cigars above... are those the black foots you're looking for? I don't remember seeing those at the shop when I was there, but I'm going to be going anyway, so I'll be glad to check. I just want to nail down what I'm looking for so I don't spend $50 on something you weren't asking for.

Swim -
You got it right on the picture forum.
The 858SG is easily distinguishable from the other Fuente sun grown products by the 858 embossed on the cello. It should also be in a wooden box like the other 858's, have cedar, and of course the black foot.
I would be very surprised if you find them, although they were sent to the same stores that got the Rosadas.
Even if they did go to the store, they could already be gone, or, he may be holding them back until the holidays.
Good luck.

It can be confusing with Fuente, Don Carlos, Hemmingway, Anejo etc. etc. etc.

I have a copy and paste job that may help:

The band alone cannot determine what line a Fuente is from. Here are the general rules regarding the color of the bottom of the band:

Green (no cedar wrap) - Regular Fuente line with Cameroon wrapper.

Green with cedar wrap - Regular Fuente chateau line. Connecticut shade wrapper.

Black with cedar wrap and black ribbon on foot- Sun Grown line with sun grown Ecuadorian wrapper

Black perfecto - Hemingway line

Black non-perfecto without cedar - Don Carlos (note, there are some belicosos in this line).

White - Anejo original release. Exception here is the #77 which is a torp with a square foot with a red ribbon on the foot. It is a new release but without cedar.

White with cedar wrap and red ribbon on foot- Anejo new releases.

Hope this helps!

Found this on a different cigar board and found it very useful myself!

Yesterday I had a green banded, cedar wrapped w/ green ribbon...but it wasn't a Conn. shade. This was darker than the ace of Spades and was one hella smoke! With the new Anjeo's and this one I described...my faith in AF is restored!

Oh, So that white banded Fuente, with a red ribbon on the foot, and the boxed press from the foot, up to a rounded headand cap, is an original release Anejo. That I just got today :?)

Homebrew --- that sounds like a Shark 77 to me, not an original release Anejo ...

The original release Anejo's are very hard to find, and are the ONLY ones with the seven year aged wrapper (aged in used anejo oak casks) ... and if you can find them, usually go for around $20 to $30 each ... as they are no longer produced that way.

They are just in cello ... with no other frills or markings.
