Just my opinion but boy, I wonder why they tried to fix something that wasn't broke. The old blend was always one of my favorites. Don't get me wrong, I like the new blend but I still prefer the old. I've only smoked 2 of the new blend stogies so far so perhaps my opinion may change. It would be nice if they still made the old blend though.

I had the robusto in this blend and thought is was ok. As George E mentioned, I just prefer those spicy cedar notes from the Especial. Besides, I know a local place that would charge me about $7 for a cedros my father..if you see where I'm going with this….

You know what this means…fire sales on the original blend at online retailers…so anyone who loved the orginal will luck out on the remaining supplies.

My guess — and it's only that — is that Edicion Especial sales had started to outstrip the regular line and they were faced with either dropping it or linking its fate to Pepin as well.

It seems to have been for the best, but I'm always curious when companies choose to do a relatively drastic reblend on such a recognizable line.
