Here's what I've found out so far... Some info is conflicting/unclear, so take it for what it's worth. (info comes from various online sources, speaking to vendors/participants of the event late last month in Mexico, and etc.)
Here are some key points so far:
1. Pete Johnson tweeted last month asking what the next size should be, and was quoted before the event as saying that the "blend would be different".
BUT...
2. During the event, PJ said it would be "just as good as last year.", causing vendors to think that it would be the same.
3. Size or the cigar WILL be smaller than last year's box-pressed toro-ish size (54rg box-press, I believe. Really liked the size too)
4. Supposed to be a blend of Nicaraguan filler/binder, with perhaps a Conneticut Broadleaf wrapper.
5. Orders have already been placed/taken by vendors present at this year's TAA event.
6. Few vendors said "end of May", a couple said'"early Fall". My guess would be around the same time as last year (early Sept.)
Again, take the info for what it's worth. A few of the vendors are supposed to have more info soon, so if I hear back, I'll post anything new here.
