STEALS AND DEALS

New sizes of Montecristo Classic now at Famous Smoke Shop

Los Angeles, August 14 – Jonathan Drew was tired of the sniping and the whispers that he couldn’t make a quality cigar that wasn’t flavored or otherwise imbued with herbs, tequila or something else.

So he created Chateau Real. And the matter was settled.

Lauded for its creamy taste and excellent draw, the Chateau Real has become a hit and is featured on special this week at BestCigarPrices.com.

There are also lots of opportunities to score on sampler packs and on some other big savings on brands you know. Here we go . . .

AtlanticCigar.com:
Rocky Patel makes the Nording brand, introduced last year. Well-received, it’s now on a rare special at Atlantic:

> Torpedo (4 inches by 54 ring), in a box of 25 was $84.00, now $71.40, or

> Robusto (5 1/2 x 52), in 25s was $94.00, now $82.80.

BestCigarPrices.com:
Drew Estates scored with the introduction of the creamy, elegantly-made Chateau Real series last year. It’s now on special and well worth checking out if you’re a fan of cigars with plenty of flavor, but which aren’t heavy in the mouth:

> Gran Cru Perfecto (6 x 54), in the box of 25 for $145.00, best in our survey;

> Magnum 46 (5 5/8 x 46), 25 for $106.00 and

> Noble Havana (5 1/4 x 54), 25 for $104.00, lowest we have seen.

• REO, made for United Tobacco by Rocky Patel and rarely seen on special;:

> Chairman (6 x 58), in the box of 20 now $66.95;

> Robusto (5 x 52), 20 for $59.95 and

> Torpedo (5 1/4 x 54), 20 for $64.95.

Cigars International:
Keith Meier and the boys from Bath (Pennsylvania) also have the REO Robusto (5 x 52), but in unusual packaging: a mazo (bundle) of 20 for $39.99. If you don’t need the box, you’re in luck! Famous Smoke Shop:
Famous has the Montecristo Classic on sale – hard to find on the Internet as it’s mostly restricted to sale in stores – in lots of new sizes. Among the original sizes, we found some good values:

> El Conde (6 x 52 in tubes), in a box of 10 for $89.95 and

> Tubo Especial (5 1/2 x 44 in tubes), also in 10s, for $80.95.

J-R Cigars:
If you’re into samplers, J-R is the place. We found some noteworthy values on small packs of some pretty nice cigars:

• Bolivar sampler, with three cigars for $10.00, best in our review.

• Punch Gran Puro’s three-cigar sampler, was $9.50, now $8.00!

• Trinidad Coronas (5 x 44) in a pack of four was $19.95, now $16.95, or try the terrific
Mini Belicosos (5 x 52), in a three-pack: was $17.95, now $15.95.

• Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Minutos (4 x 30), in boxes of 35 for just $34.95, best in our survey.

Mike’s Cigars:
Mike’s also has the Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Minutos (4 x 30), in 35s for $34.95, same as J-R.

The TinderBox.com folks posted a large number of sale items on their site late last week, but have asked us to delete our list of these items since they have changed their pricing once again.

We apologize to our readers for this inconvenience, but we do not want to send you on what would now be a "wild goose chase."
