It’s likely the factory code. I’ve heard that multiple factories will make the same cigars. This way they know which one made the cigars. They try to be cryptic about it so people aren’t picky about the box purchase. They had people looking and only buying if the sticks were made in one factory over another.

This ^^^.

codes change randomly, factories remain the same. ABO may have changed by now.

the larger brands are made wherever there is room,some of the lesser ones may be made in a specific factory.

I had Monte 4 boxes from 7 different box codes from 2014, probably had a couple of code changes among that group.

I have a box of Monte 4's with code ABO JUN 17 that have been smoking great (aside from one cigar that was hard as a rock and unsmokable).

I also have some H. Upmann Mag 46's with code ABO JUL 17 that have had completely fireproof wrappers so far. Those are down for a long nap at his point with the hopes that they will improve.

As far as which factory the ABO code belongs to, I have no clue.
