I was just trying to think of super duper premiums, as defined by the above criteria. Rarity is not a factor.

I could only think of two off the top of my head:

PA 1929s
Greycliffes

Maybe there are some big Cohibas that go for that much?
 
If you are dealing with list price there are quite a number. If you go with what you can actually get things for then the total is smaller. For example the list on the Gurkha Centurian XX is $30 but you can get them for half that at CI.
 
Technically speaking only the largest of the '26s (#1) lists for $20. Can't think of any others.
 
HOw about the..

God of Fires list for $40.oo+
The Padron 40th anniversary 64 and 26 list for $25.oo+
 
A number of the Davidoff's are in that price range as well... (Anniversario #1's are over $30)

Not exactly -- it's just that right now the only way to get them is if you buy the humidor too.
 
Padron Millennium was over a $20 list, Monte "A" both domestic and Cuban are over $20. As stated before the Cohiba - Sublimes Ed Limitada are over $20 each too.
 
The right Edicion De Silvo may get there.
La Auroras top of the line comes close as well
 
The Gurkha Legend Aniversario lists at $20
but it can be had for less at CI

Bill
 
I've had several anniversary padrons that were listed at over 20, as well as a gurkha and an opus perfexion A. I am pretty sure that davidoff zinos are dang expensive as well....right?
 
Yeah, they are high. Like the Chubby Crown series. 35 bucks, but a good smoke, IMHO. :thumbs:

Don't tell me you didn't see this coming,

PADRON 1926
Greycliff

Padron 1926's are NOT "Anniversary," that designation is used ONLY when you are talking about the 1964's NOT the 1926's, therefore it is wrong to say "Padron Anniversary 1926"

Oh and alex, there is no such thing as a "Padron 40th Anniversary 1964" the Padron 40th Anniversary are 1926 ONLY not 1964.

Davidoff Millennium Blend Churchills are right around $20.00/stick

Technically it is the anniversary of the elder Padron's birthday. He was born in 1926. However, you are right, I believe its official designation is the Serie 1926.

AH thanks for clearing it up.. I thought there was a special 64 series cigar? or is that the one referred to as the millenium smoke?

The 1964 Anniversario line was started in 1994 to celebrate the Padron's 30th year in business. It is an Anniversary cigar. The Millennium was for just that, the Millennium. The 40th Anniversary cigar, while a Serie 1926 blend, celebrates the Padron's 40th anniversary in business.

I think that is all correct. Please chime in if I have missed something.
 
The Millennium Blend is called "Millennium 1964 Series Limited Edition"

And it's "1964 Anniversary" NOT "Anniversario" I dunno why many vendors call them "Anniversarios" but nothing I've ever seen from Padron calls them "1964 Anniversarios"

technically true, but only because you've got one too many n's in there.
I've definitely seen older boxes where on both the box and the bands they are Padron 1964 Serie "Aniversario". in fact I've got a box of Diplomaticos that are 1964 "Aniversarios".
here are a couple photos for reference:

Man, Mr. Perceptive here never notice the change. Thanks for the info. I was hoping I wasn't making the Aniversario stuff up.
