[1]History[edit]The Punch brand was first registered in 1840 by German named Stockmann and named for the European puppet show character, Mr. Punch (not the magazine, which was created a year later).  The brand quickly became a success, especially in Great Britain.  The first change of ownership came in 1874, when the brand was bought by a Luis Corujo, and again in 1884, when the brand was purchased by Manuel L\u00f3pez Fern\u00e1ndez and its bands and boxes still bear his name to this day.  Retiring in 1924 and dying shortly after, L\u00f3pez gave ownership of the brand to Esperanza Valle Comas, who only held it for a few years before the Stock Market Crash of 1929.Like most other businesses around the world, the Cuban cigar industry faced financial hardships.  In 1930, the firm of Fern\u00e1ndez, Palicio y C\u00eda bought up the brand, where it became one of the company’s headlining cigar marques, along with Belinda, La Escepci\u00f3n, and Hoyo de Monterrey, and maintained its popularity with British cigar smokers.After the embargo was set against Cuba by the United States, Fernando Palicio fled Cuba for Florida, where he subsequently sold his cigar lines to Frank Llaneza and Dan Blumenthal of Villazon & Co., which has continued to make Punch, Hoyo de Monterrey, and Belinda cigars from Honduran tobacco for the American market.Cuba subsequently nationalized the tobacco industry and Punch continued production and is still a popular, multi-locally-marketed Cuban cigar line.  Among connoisseurs, the eponymous Punch, Double Corona, Churchill, and Super Selection No. 2 are especially prized and sought after.[citation needed]Punch also produces two machine-made cigarillos: the Cigarritos and Cigarritos Reserva.Punch has two Edici\u00f3n Limitada production cigars. One was released in 2013, and the other in 2017. It is also extremely popular as a brand for the Edicion Regional series of cigars produced by Habanos for local markets.Vitolas in the Punch Line[edit]  The following list of vitolas de salida (commercial vitolas) within the Punch marque lists their size and ring gauge in Imperial (and Metric), their vitolas de galera (factory vitolas), and their common name in American cigar slang.Hand-Made VitolasChurchill – 7″ \u00d7 47 (178 \u00d7 18.65\u00a0mm), Julieta No. 2, a churchillCorona – 55\u20448” \u00d7 42 (143 \u00d7 16.67 mm), Corona, a coronaCoronation – 51\u20448” \u00d7 42 (130 \u00d7 16.67\u00a0mm), Petit Corona, a petit coronaDouble Corona – 75\u20448” \u00d7 49 (194 \u00d7 19.45 mm), Prominente, a double coronaMargarita – 43\u20444” \u00d7 26 (121 \u00d7 10.32\u00a0mm), Carolina, a small panetelaPetit Corona del Punch – 51\u20448” \u00d7 42 (130 \u00d7 16.67 mm), Mareva, a petit coronaPetit Coronation – 45\u20448” \u00d7 40 (117 \u00d7 15.88\u00a0mm), Coronita, a petit coronaPetit Punch – 4″ \u00d7 40 (102 \u00d7 15.88\u00a0mm), Perla, a tres petit coronaPunch – 55\u20448” \u00d7 46 (143 \u00d7 18.26 mm), Corona Gorda, a grand coronaRoyal Coronation – 53\u20444” \u00d7 44 (146 \u00d7 17.46\u00a0mm), Conserva, a long coronaRoyal Selection No. 11 – 55\u20448” \u00d7 46 (143 \u00d7 18.26 mm), Corona Gorda, a grand coronaRoyal Selection No. 12 – 51\u20448” \u00d7 42 (130 \u00d7 16.67\u00a0mm), Mareva, a petit coronaSuper Selection No. 1 – 61\u20448” \u00d7 42 (156 \u00d7 16.67 mm), Corona Grande, a long coronaEdici\u00f3n Limitada ReleasesSerie d’Oro No. 2 (2013) – 51\u20442” \u00d7 50 (140 \u00d7 20\u00a0mm), Campanas, a pyramid or torpedoRegios de Punch (2017) – 47\u204410” \u00d7 48 (120 \u00d7 19.1\u00a0mm), Hermoso Especial, a corona extraEdici\u00f3n Regional ReleasesSuperfino (Italy 2005, 2006) – 43\u20448” \u00d7 42 (110 \u00d7 16.67\u00a0mm), Minuto, a tres petit coronaRobusto (Switzerland 2005, 2007) – 47\u20448” \u00d7 50 (124 \u00d7 19.84 mm), Robusto, a robustoSuper Robusto (Asia Pacific 2006, 2007) – 61\u20448” \u00d7 50 (155 \u00d7 19.84\u00a0mm) Doble, a toroRobusto (United Arab Emirates 2008) – 47\u20448” \u00d7 50 (124 \u00d7 19.84 mm), Robusto, a robustoSerie d’Oro No. 1 (UK 2008) – 61\u20448” \u00d7 52 (156 \u00d7 20.64\u00a0mm) Pir\u00e1mide, a pyramid or torpedoPunch Royal (Benelux 2009) – 51\u20442” \u00d7 50 (141 \u00d7 19.84 mm) Goridto, a robusto extraSmall Club (France 2009) – 4″ \u00d7 50 (102 \u00d7 19.84\u00a0mm) Petit Robusto, a petit robustoPlatino (India 2009) – 75\u20448” \u00d7 49 (194 \u00d7 19.45 mm) Prominente, a double coronaDiadema (Italy 2009) – 91\u20448” \u00d7 55 (233 \u00d7 21.83\u00a0mm) Diadema, a diademaNorthern Lights (Nordic Countries 2009) – 43\u20448” \u00d7 52 (110 \u00d7 20.64 mm) Petit Edmundo, a petit robustoPoderoso (Switzerland 2009) – 61\u20442” \u00d7 54 (164 \u00d7 21.43\u00a0mm) Sublime, a toroMin Ron Nee with Adriano Martinez Ruis, An Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Post-Revolution Havana Cigars.
