hellorockview12 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I recently had a box of Montecristo Petite Edmundo brought back for me from the island that was purchased at the LCDH in Varadero at the plaza. The box looks like any other box of Petite Edmundos I've ever owned except that it has a yellow Montecristo Petite Edmundo sticker on the outside rightmost side of the box and a yellow Montecristo insert; both similar to that of the Double Edmundo presentation. The box that I have from April 2017 does not have this extra "flair". The barcode checks out on the Habanos website and they look/smell remarkable, so I don't doubt their authenticity just yet but I thought given the volume of Petite Edmundos bought/sold/consumed within this community someone could shine some light on this subject. I will update with photos when I get home. Thanks! Edit: Added location of purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitzy Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 This is what my box looks like that I bought from the 24:24 listing a couple weeks ago. I've seen older boxes that do not have that yellow insert so I assume that's relatively new. If my memory is correct I think this box is from August 2017.

Engineer99 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I was just wondering this myself not too long ago when I saw a box on the recent purchases thread. My box from '16 doesn't have the insert... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I smoked one and I'm going to let the remainder rest for 6 months before I try another. If I'm still getting that ammonia in the second half I'll keep sampling every 6 months until they are perfect.

oliverdst Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 less paper inside the box would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danimalia Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I've only had the older style boxes, but I do like the paper stickers on the side. Party E2 has it as well. Just think it looks kind of cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellorockview12 Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 I'd imagine the next will be to roll out the E2 packaging to the P2, D4 and D5... For better or for worse I won't fuss about it too much, just glad to see that it's a legit box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connoisseur Kim Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Surprsing that every Edmundo lineup has paper sticker like Partagas E2 since 2018 which I have never seen before (only Double Edmundo has it if I am not mistaken). It looks good to me though (wonder it will be applied to Partgas Serie lineup too). Sent from my SHV-E300S using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuzzArd Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Every DE box I've ever had sported this insert. This, for the past two years. Still have an Edmundo box and a PE without, but it seems it's coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
