I received my box of 1959 – Corona Gorda 6 1/2 X 64 and found that many of the cigars had “Tobacco Beetle” damage! They are offering to replace them (after I return the Box of Bettles of course).

I hate to do it, but the next box will have to go into the freezer, before place in my humidor. Just a warning to those who are making the purchase.

I've been told by National Sales Director Alberto Noguera that Cuban Crafters has been "swamped with orders that we took at IPCPR." They're playing catch-up now and shipping boxes to cigar stores, but hope to have the blend available on thier website "within a month." With any luck, StogieGuys.com will have another full review of a different vitola to coincide with the blend's full launch.
