Partagas Trés Petit Coronas Box - What Year?

[Edicion]

Hello everyone,

Asking for a friend, who has a box of Partagas Trés Petit Coronas 25 stick box and wants to know what year it is from. So do I! 

The Cubancigarwebsite mentions it was discontinued in 2001, so that's a clue at least. 

The code on the box is:

FPG

And

OLSO or U

Thanks for any help and insights!

(the cigars look as good as new, kept in a humidor since new and smell great)

Looks like an O, and that would be May 1990. FPG = Partagas Factory.

Agreed. That was my first thought too.

Yes, and as @CaptainQuintero notes, the TPC were generally considered outstanding cigars. They look to be in excellent condition. If stored properly, these should be at peak smoking age right now, and those old Partagas can have serious legs.

I always preferred the TPC to the Short. Would trade my "shorts" for these! Pardon the pun!!!
