November 22, 1963. Remembering A Fallen BOTL

Not sure if it's the same story but I got a real kick reading about how JFK had someone run out to all the cigar stores around DC and buy up his H Upmanns before he signed the embargo...really a fascinating story.
On that note, as I recall, they discontinued his favorite size of Upmann correct? I want to say it was a petite corona, something like that? Regardless, if the HU #2 and Robusto are smoking anything like the blend he had, then he made the right decision to stock up on them.
