These are getting scarce....and expensive.

Back in Feb, I found a box at $135, but not seeing anything under 170+
Anyone who knows of source asking under $150, please PM me.

Sorry even my spot is sold out, got a box back in Feb of 17 for $114 from there. They’re up to $127.50 but are out of stock like everywhere else is.

Ty, DeD, ypetrya and napalm.
Ordered from two of the places suggested; both indicated stock on hand. Both charged my credit card. Both sent me email saying they shipped. Crazy chit because neither place had any. First place refunded me after a half dozen calls.. cuenca...cough cough

Second (up in a Hi land) says they may get 'em in a week and will move me to top of the list....leaving my card charged all the while, of course

Sorry to hear. The owner is a good dude and will come through. Had that same issue with a box of R44 but the price was worth the wait for me.

wow! That just suqs balz...

I just ordered some WOAMs on sale from a place that said they had them..........they did not, and they called to tell me so after 48 hours.
They offered full refund, or Best Sellers Maduro at decent price with my card refunded the difference.
I told them just throw in some extra cigars, and we'll call it good.
They took good care of me...

Exact same thing happened to me during their Labor Day 20% off Fuente sale...however, like Rick said, the price was too good to fuss about and had more than enough R44s to tide me through.

Is here some type of marking or something on the cigar that lets you know it is sun grown? Does it look a lot different than the Maduro?

SG comes with a cedar sleeve and and a black ribbon on the foot and the band is black instead of green. Something tells me you were fishing here for some reason.

Sorry to hear, that blows.




FWIW--- Fuente has said the the 858SG are back to being a limited release and won't be stocked year round. So if you find them, grab them while you can.

If it trips anyone's trigger, I've seen Hemi SSG available at various locations right now.

Ok now how about the sun grown rosado 8-5-8, are they pretty much the same caliber as the reg sun grown?

Different animal. I am a fan of both but the Rosado is truly a restricted release about every 3-5 years.

For those who can't find 858SG the Cuban Belicoso and Chateau Fuente SG are usually available.

Fuente is now making a new Oro Rosado but I have not tried it yet.

Fort Belvoir BX has Queen B SG most of the time -- I'm not buying boxes there, but I will grab one for about $6 when I stop in the Class VI every now and again
