The Ashton Maduro, Macanudo, el rey del mundo and the torano all have some age to them and smoke great. The el rey and torano are cheapos but I really like them.

Enjoy bud.

Ben sent me one of those Cohibas too, in the PIB (waiting for pic post approval). It has 4 rows of squares, 2 above Cohiba.

Found these...

Standard Band C, 1993-2003

Good job Jeferris you are correct.

and no I don't buy cigars in mexico. I got them from a friend who used to own a cigar factory in Honduras. He spent a lot of time in Cuba... hence.

He gave up cigars and it was to my benefit .

Ferris I'd love to believe it but the CE in that review has a pigtail. I don't think these are the same animal.

When I was recently in Vegas with whistlebritches we went to a shpo on Freemont st that has a "special" humidor wit a padlock..... they have "limitada" releases in vitolas that never existed.....in years they were never made......and every "special" box has the exact same box code.

Lazy ass counterfeiters.

Their Fauxhibas has better bands tho
