Ayub Posted January 24 Posted January 24 @LizardGizmo I just got those but couldn't find this factory code in your doc. 1
garage dweller Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I got a box of QD50s from FOH that had a stamp that read: "LRO ABR 24" (single stamp). Anyone know where that's from? 1

Does anyone else have a record of either BEO or BOE? I'm wondering if the 16/17 code listed as BOE for Caney Factory in Santiago is a typo on the document.

They are certainly unique for a Montecristo No.4 cigar as the cigars are box-pressed and the wrappers are very pale; almost a Claro shade! 1
Chas.Alpha Posted January 30 Posted January 30 I also have a BOE ABR 19 box of Monte #4. The box has been hit/miss for me. 1
gormag38 Posted March 19 Posted March 19 I'm kinda surprised we haven't heard anything about them changing up factory codes. Seems like it should be expected this year? Maybe others with more knowledge of the switches will chime in as they know something. 1

Seems like it should be expected this year? Maybe others with more knowledge of the switches will chime in as they know something. I’m in Havana now. Confirmed with four different factory directors that codes still haven’t changed and there is no current plan to. I did hear from one that the whole box code system might be changing, but they haven’t heard anything. Heard from another that the box code transparency has eliminated the need to even change the codes at this point. They’re also more confident that the consumer understands that quality has improved quite a bit island-wide, even in provincials. Who knows what components of this information are accurate, but as of now we are 3+ years of the same codes. 6 5
Salomones Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Perhaps they've realized they no longer need the box code. It only shows where the cigars were packaged; since some years not longer where they were rolled.
