truckin25 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Just got this box from a friend and was curious if anyone was familiar with the factory code. Read some reviews here but if anyone has thoughts on the cigars themselves, that’s welcomed also. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The code ROA is also one I'm not sure existed. I'm looking but it's possible it never was used. Also these are cigars I've seen high end fakes of for years. Trini RT and RE have been highly sought after for a while. Update: ROA was used in 2006 for the Jose Marti (old HU) factory. Sorry my friend--this is a fake box. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct. I remember a glorious ROA 06 H.Upmann Petit Coronas I went through around 2016. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually faking vintage stock was the norm until this year. Who would fake CoRo when it was $600 and in stock everywhere? I've seen fakes of this level of Trini RT and RE for years. Of course cigars like Cohiba Sublimes and Piramides ELs have been faked for years at about this level. I've also seen fakes of 05 RA Belicosos and 1990s Monte 2.
