My first ISOM

CC, I have nothing but the uttermost respect for you, but in this case I think you are either wrong, or we are both on a different page. In front of me I have a box that the Partagas Petit Coronas Especiales came from. On the side it says "Made By Hand" and on the bottom burned it says "Totalmente a Mano"

The box code is FEB06. The is absolutely no question on the authenticity of these sticks.

I could post some pics, but dial up kind of sucks for things like that. Here are some pics of the box that I uploaded before I moved while I had DSL.

From what I understand the Partagas Petit Coronas were discontinued some time ago.



sorry I don't have a pic of the side where it says "25 - Petit Coronas Especiales"
Read near the bottom of this thread. The difference is explained to me.

Just to clarify...yes it may say something in the book about a machine made hard to find smoke, but what was the publish date of the book CC?

I know for a fact where that stick came from that Dan smoked, and I assure you that it was a Hand Made, Partagas Petit Coronas Especials made in February 2006.

Off-topic but I do enjoy the "Smoking can Kill" sticker in pink on the box. <--smiley

Lol...and those fuggers must have superglued it on. I could not get it off without damaging the box. Ah well...

The publish date of the book is 2003 and the copyright date I have on the HabanosSA document is 2002. One possible explanation is that HabanosSA has changed the Partagas PCEs to a hand made cigar sometime after 2003. Again, I find no evidence from any published information I have that supports this but your photos obviously conflict with what I have. Another possibility is that your box is fake but that's probably not likely since the box in your photographs look very authentic to me.
