I just noticed that the blue labels are now released in a corona gorda, PC and corona size. So far I've only seen them at CI and cigar.com. Really looking forward to see how these smoke.

Demitase (petite corona)(4.5" x 32)
Exquisitos (corona)(5.6" x 46)
Preferidos (preferido)(5.1" x 42)
 
I've never bought a box of blues due to them all being large ring gauge, but I guess that is about to change. :)
 
:D mmmm....more blue labels!!!! Beautiful! :D

My friend, IMHO, you are really missing out here. I've kept boxes of Invictos and Generosos in the cabinet as a "staple" for some time. Those first boxes are just over the 1 year mark, and the way these cigars smoke is just incredible.... :love: Along with Padron x000's, these are some of the best mid priced smokes you can lay your hands on. Don't let the ring size worry you; these are wonderful smokes.

The new sizes are cool and all, but they missed one. I wish they'd have come out with a 4 X ~40. That's roughly the same size as the discontinued Tatuajie "Bombazo", the Illusion 68, or several others I can think of. The little 32 ring guys just burn too hot for me no matter how I nurse them along. A 4 X 40 is a PERFECT size for a quick smoke with AM coffee, a busy weeknight with a splash of grog, or anytime when you just don't have an hour to enjoy a good cigar.

I'm a big fan of the blues and I'm glad to see the line up getting some attention. Clearly, other guys have figured out what a great cigar these are.

Best Regards - B.B.S.

I'm with you on that. The Black label Perlas are one of my favorite smokes. I'd LOVE to have the Blue label in that size.

I'm also a little disappointed that the new sizes other than the smallest one seem to be only available in cabs of 50. I don't buy anything in cabs of 50 and I don't usually buy 5ers anymore unless they're from a BOTL selling here at CP.

I wonder if these will be available elsewhere? I'd be VERY happy if Mark, Al, or one of the other active guys here had these available.

...I have a box of the Perla's but if "I were king" I'd wish for a little larger ring. Maybe I've got vacuum lungs but even those burn a little hot for me. 4 X 40-45.....now you're talking.... :cool:

The Perlas are 4x40 aren't they?

I wouldn't mind a 45 ring gauge, though. It would tame them a tad bit.
 
Has anyone tired the Gran Corona ? 9.2 X 48 When they come out with this size ? I like Pepin Blues, but that's a lot of Blue.
 
Thanks for the heads up Mike, I hadn't even heard about the new sizes. I like the DPG Blues more and more every time I smoke 'em. Lookin' forward to trying out each one! of these.
