Back in August of 2011, Quesada released a blend that was specifically blended to be paired with an Oktoberfest style beer. Appropriately dubbed the Oktoberfest, the cigar line was first released in two different vitolas at the IPCPR show in Las Vegas: the 6 x 65 Über and the 5 1/2 by 52 Bavarian. For 2012, it was [...]

In terms of releases, SAG Imports had a lot at the show. When you think about it, it never seemed that large—mainly because so many were extensions and limited production releases, but there was a lot. As far as the booth, it looked much the same—rather open and relaxing, except in a few moments, like [...]

Last Monday, Quesada informed its reps it would be adding three additional sizes to its two returning Oktoberfest sizes. At least one size was still being finalized, but as of yesterday, the IPCPR release has been finalized. The five vitolas are: Oktoberfest Bavarian (5 1/2 x 52 Double Robusto) — $7.95 — 1,000 Boxes of [...]

Editor’s Note: And it was supposed to be a slow week in the cigar world. What seemed destined to be a rather quiet week turned into the busiest of the year. Familiar readers of the weekly news will see that it is back to somewhat of a familiar form. Cabaiguan WCD 120 REDUX — The [...]

SAG Imports’ Terence Reilly has confirmed that both sizes of Quesada’s Oktoberfest release will be returning in 2012. There’s currently no other info about whether there will be any changes to packaging, pricing or release type of Bavarian and/or the Über, but after selling out relatively quickly after their IPCPR 2011 launch, at the very [...]

For the 2010 rendition of this concept, click here to see Brian Hewitt’s work. Before anyone starts, I started this long before Bill Berris posted his rendition of this a few days at Cigar Snapshot. (Bill’s serves as a interesting sample of this, although there are noticeable differences beyond population size.) The concept was simple, [...]

Last year, I published an article entitled Ten Questions for 2011. The concept was simple, what were a few of the topics to watch for in the upcoming year. With the notable exception of E.P. Carrillo’s crazy year, I’d like to think that we covered most of the major topics of 2011. With another year [...]

Today we will be taking a look at a cigar that I have been very much anticipating, the Quesada Oktoberfest Über! We reviewed the wonderful Quesada Selección España Corona, the España Short Robusto and the new Casa Magna Dominus a few weeks ago and frankly all three completely knocked our socks off, this has given me [...]

I saw Terence Reilly pretty early into my stay into Vegas. I had a good conversation with one of the key players at Quesada/MATASA/SAG Imports, about a variety of things, but particularly about the present and future of the company his uncle, Manuel “Manolo” Quesada, sits at the helm of. The IPCPR show was relatively [...]
