First off, I apologize for the lack of updates, the hotel WiFi is awful. Straight from Mr. Jason Wood’s Twitter account, it’s confirmed – the La Aurora 107 Lancero is happening. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait a bit, but it’s coming. I spoke to Mike from Buckhead Cigar and he confirmed that the first sampling, even with little age on them, was quite good.

Update: Guillermo just confirmed these will be released October 7, 2010 in boxes of twenty-one.

Thanks to Guillermo, José, Jason, Mike and all those that had a hand in this.

Update #2: Jason Wood just sent this over, here’s how to order:

  • We will begin to take orders, via Twitter, (@miamicigar) starting Monday September 13 @ 9 am. Direct Message (DM) only.
  • Limited pre release of 300 boxes (21 cigars)
  • 1st ever 100% driven promotion, demand for this size was expressed via Twitter
  • Boxes will arrive here the last week in October to be delivered to stores before Halloween
  • We can only sell to retailers, no consumer purchases. Consumers must let their tobacconist know about the promo.
