This is what I was afraid of. I picked up a torp in Dallas over the weekend for the ride home and then was looking to buy some online and kept getting mixed signals. The ones in Dallas were the old ones and so I called and they knocked a little off and are sending the rest of the box. I asked him what he knew and he pled ignorant but he's gonna throw in a new one so I can compare.

Too bad - these were great cigars.
