Cestis4 Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Cohiba 2024 Robustos. Do the 2 UV squares show up on all or just some like the 4 diagonal squares? I have 3 boxes all 2024; 2 boxes have the 2 diagonal squares under the fold of the label, one has 4 diagonal squares visible on the label. All 2024 boxes. Any rhyme or reason to this ?
ATGroom Posted February 8 Posted February 8 The squares that light up depends on the size of the band. The 38-47rg band has four diagonal squares close to the Taino head. The 48-54rg band has two off far away near the end of the band (yours is correct) The 55-60rg has five in a W pattern also off near the end of the band (slightly closer) Not that you can tell all that much from the bands as the fakes have the UV perfected for a long time now. 2
ha_banos Posted February 8 Posted February 8 It's a scorecard these days. How many discrepancies raise the alarm? The packaging and bands have come along way it's hard to tell sometimes. So other subtle tells need to be found. The aroma and perhaps construction are way more difficult signs. Can you tell a Cuban grown wrapper year on year? People just don't seem familiar enough with the real product and the acceptable variations. And sometimes I think I read unbanded custom Cuba rolls can be substituted. If they go that far. Has the infamous Majestuos fiasco been resolved yet? Now 80k over here, lol!
