I recently received a Montecristo Edmundo Jar from a reputable source. I don't have too much experience with jars, but the few I have were inconsistent in their labeling/seals/markings. For example, I got a San Cristobal Torreon from FOH last year; The box had a warranty seal holding on the top, and the underside of the top of the box was stamped with a factory and date code just like a standard CC box. The Edmundo Jar's box had no warranty seal, and no date/factory code under the top. The bottom of the jar does have the Byron logo/seal, which is the correct current jar manufacturer. The Torreon oddly did not have this logo on the bottom. There is very little info on the Edmundo jars, but from what I have read they were released in 2010. I'm not sure if that means they were only produced in 2010, but one thing I noted was that the Edmundos have the newer style white glossy embossed bands, so I assume the cigars are more recent. Also all the pictures I've seen of the Edmundo Jar box lack the warranty seal. Anyone knowledgeable with jars in general or the Edmundo jar specifically care to weigh in. Are these inconsistencies common with jars?
