  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

We just got in a couple of boxes of Nobles with an Exclusivo label on the box. Nothing extra on the cigars themselves. They may be a bit darker than the others, not sure.

Anyone heard anything on this?

No. I did find some Tianos the other weekend while in NH that were particularly dark. Smoked the one I had last weekend & it was definitely stronger... It may have been an oscuro? Idk - the box was from 07, but had no other 'special' markings... Pete loves the limited stuff - perhaps they just 'release' odd boxes (or mistakes) here & there - particularly when they don't have enough to justify an official LE...?

that's exactly why I asked, remember the first noella reservas, they just showed up at random stores...

The boxes with the extra label come celloed, the ones w/o the sticker are not celloed.

That is the only difference to my knowledge...

I noticed the same thing at the shop here. I am assuming it is just a new label. Please let me know if it is something special.

Is it the label from Pepin's new factory?

....the same label that's on the Tat T110's maybe...

Nope, they are talking about a red band across one of the top corners of the Havana boxes. It says, "Exclusivo" and represents that those boxes are celloed.

Wow...seemed like he could have saved the sticker!! :dunno:
I believe the story goes that some shops wanted cello and some rather have the cabinet style (non-cello), so you have to distinguish them somehow w/o opening the box.
