Just picked up 6 of each size of the Centurions. Smoking my first one. It's incredible. Medium in strength and full of depth with earthy flavors. A must try. I gotta grab some boxes.

definately LE, i wanna say 50,000 boxes but don't quote me, the writeup is in the Holt's catalog-3 sizes, $200+/box-might grab a single at the local if they have 'em, but damn, another $10+ smoke-even if it's good it's outta my normal range

I have heard they are limited to either 800 0r 850 boxes per size. I have only smoked the robusto but enjoyed it. It starts off a bit spicey but sadly (for my taste), the spice subsides in lesss than ten minutes. It then mellows out to a mild, light medium cigar but very smooth. For me, it makes a great post-breakfast cigar on the weekeend.

800 & 850 sure sound a lot more 'L' than 50,000!

checked the holt's sept catalog last nite, listed as 50,000 boxes, no info on how it was split per vitola-not saying holt's is the final word on all things cigar, just the only info i could find

The parejo's are better than the figurado's IMHO.
Not worth stocking up at $10 per pop when so many great Cubans can be had for $6-$8 range IMHO. Certainly worth having a box in the humi though.
