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 the next few weekends 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.
Revising a Box
- Thread starter cvm4

Did some searching. Found this over at CigarPass
"Revisado means that the box was opened and inspected. Cuba does this every couple of years to ensure the old boxes are still good.
Nothing to worry about - completely legit (from the Manager of Caracol in Havana, Cuba). You might also find two nail holes!"
'03 doesn't seem that "old" to require it, but who knows

The box was "REINSPECTED" ---- and judged as proper to sell.... It's a current quality indicator usually for older stock that was subjected to re-inspection - or sometimes, when cigars of a known vitola and date code are associated with a problem batch - these are submitted for official reinspection so the dealer can sell them off despite a bad rep... Some of the 1999 through earlier 2001 vitolas were notorious for construction problems , terrible draw, plugged etc... Consequently, a bunch of these have been sitting in warehouses and the dealers not able to move them owing to the poor rep.... So they are submitted for reinspection and if they PASS, they acquire the 2nd stamp and advertised as such.
MAN IF YOU GUYS DIDNT KNOW WHAT REVISADO MEANT YOU NEED A NEW HOBBY..........................................................................................................just kidding of course...lol
one would think of revised if thinking spanish and english is sometimes close...but anyway it is normal that venders open and inspect any older boxes laying around it simply lets the buyer or potential buyer know they were checked and are in good condition.
there are many older boxes without the revisado but they still were most likely inspected as all are somewhat when the bubble wrap goes in...if your talking ravi that is..
