Good question, I got one and a half boxes of the Corona Largo and half a box of the Lanceros. You think we might go as high as 5% for the CCOM forum?
The [2021] U.S. release of the Corona Largo and Robusto vitolas are limited to 600 boxes each, the Lancero is limited to 400 boxes.
Hmm 80 boxes seems like alot but could be. I got 2 Corona Largos
I think I'm the only one who skipped this year, but it's because I bought 3 boxes last year, and still have 2.25 of them. I wonder who here has the most?

I have a handful from last year so I put them on top of the tenski of this year's corona gordas in last year's box. (with the ribbon around last year's cigars).

Box of Corona Largos and a box of Lanceros (if they ever get here) for me, but, when a manufacturer says "box", I think they mean something different than what we mean by box. Seems to me that the manufacturers production "box" is 10,000 cigars, according to some thread I read here years ago. I could be wrong.

The [2021] U.S. release of the Corona Largo and Robusto vitolas are limited to 600 boxes each, the Lancero is limited to 400 boxes, that's 1600 boxes of 20 sticks, or 32,000 cigars total, if they're considering 20ct. 1600 boxes of 10,000, or 16million sticks, seems too high.
The Corona Largo and Robuto come in 20 count boxes while the Lancero comes in a 12 count box so 4,800 Lanceros + 12,000 Corogna Largos and 12,000 Robustos = 28,800 cigars. This seems normal for a LE. 16,000,000 cigars seems way to high, especially considering that they've been selling out so quickly.

Today, I installed a portable a/c unit in my cigar room upstairs. Not much to it, just rig up the window baffle thingie and connect the big air duct hose, plug it in, and voila! My late wife would use to term 'coolth' in contrast to warmth (jokingly) and it's going to be great to smoke in the coolth instead of the hot/humid/2nd-floor air. When I first installed my garage door opener, I remember how I felt like I a millionaire; no more getting out of the car and lugging that heavy door up (and back down) every time I left or came home... I'm certain this a/c unit will have the same result.

Painting with a really broad brush here but...
If 100 shops across the country got them equally (2 in each state). They would get 288 cigars each ~14-20 boxes.
I am Equipment Service (maintenance technician) for a car company at their transmission factory in the aluminum machining department. We take the cases from the die cast department and machine them before they go into assembly. We typically have 4 ES personnel per shift. Well, today 2 were scheduled for vacation and 1 guy called in, so I am by myself tonight. I hope it is a quiet night and nothing breaks down! An hour and 15 minutes in, and so far, so good.
My niece‘s ex husband was laid to rest today. He was something to deal with but overall not a bad guy. He was killed in a hit and run Saturday night. He served in the Army from 2002 to 2018. It is crazy to think that he did 6 tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan without so much as a scratch.

Indeed, 16 million seems way too high. I didn't do the math, just memory off the top of my head. The other numbers still seem low, but this is a boutique blend, so that could be it. Perhaps it was 1000 per manufacturers "box"? I'm certain of reading in some post, probably by Kuzi, that what they call box and what we call box are not the same.
Of course, I've drank a lot of Scotch since then, so...who knows?

Tragic to hear this. If the News made as much of a deal about traffic deaths as they do about other things, automobiles would have been outlawed a long time ago.

Not all that creative but it was fun. Box-clock.

It'll be fine once the swelling goes down.
I can always count on you @IndustMech
Wonder what percentage of bishops blend '21 this forum got?
And now, if you bomb someone a BB, chances are they'll already have a box of 'em.

Hmm 80 boxes seems like alot but could be. I got 2 Corona Largos
1 box of the lanceros

Not me. I've bought a ton but I smoke them lol
I have a handful from last year so I put them on top of the tenski of this year's corona gordas in last year's box. (with the ribbon around last year's cigars).
I'm running low on the 18s.

^^^ That makes sense. 20- 25,000 cigars for an entire country seems a bit sketchy.

If they made 100,000 you wouldn't chase them with the same verve.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

hang in there, there's a cigar waiting for you at the end of your shift.
You probably deserve two cigars tonight.
