» Does any one know about a late batch with newer bands?

Those bands are the only boxes I have. Thopugh I know others that have original bands and didnt know the new ones came on them

These cigars indeed came out in (at least) two batches. The originals had the darker bands while the newer ones had bands that are mostly silver. I Liked these cigars a lot when fresh & for 2-3 years after release. They were tasty & quite powerful. A bit too mellow for me now.

I got a box of the second release after smoking a few singles I got in trade from the first. My box never measured up. I think I have one cigar left from it, they never came around a bit. I think this is the cigar that put me off the LEs, if you don't get in right away you don't have any idea what you will get.
