Eye of the Shark

Anybody else notice the new bands on the new Sharks that are popping up? Are these going to be a regular release now?



Edit: not my pic...

Edit: whoops, you already knew what I posted

Maybe something special since don Carlos passed away?

Interesting--I bought a box at the Holts Fuentemania event a few weeks ago and they are all old style. Makes me think they have some age on them--first time smoking them--great sticks!

I have smoked a few of last years release and loved them. This years release appears to have a much darker wrapper from the pics I have seen. If they aren't at a stoopid price, I suggest getting some. I don't know if they are an annual release or not, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Original release on the left, new release on the right.

With the whole DC line apparently moving to The Man's 80th-style band, perhaps they're changing to a more standardized band size to cover multiple vitolas, and avoid the bit of ribbon they put behind the tape on the ORs?

I did not know they were changing bands on the whole line. That would make sense then with the bands..

I've seen both DC Belicosos and Robustos now wearing the 80th bands. Thankfully, the DCPR robustos have the secondary band to differentiate. Hopefully we won't see anyone trying to box-press the belicosos and pass them off as Sharks, though in a world where Prometheus dealers sell fake BBMFs, who knows.
