Picked up only two of these got them home to find the cellophane has yellowed what does that mean I herd some brothers on here talk about yellow cellophane before. View attachment 40922
"yellow cello" is a sign of the oils moving around, and can be an indication of a cigar aging under proper conditions. which is odd on a release that young, but the bastards ARE pretty oily. important thing is, did you enjoy it? o)

I don't know why this (specific) cigar is shaped the way it is (like an Anejo 77 shark) pressed at the foot and tapered like a figuardo to the cap...but it's cool. Unless I missed it with all the rest I've smoked in the past...haha..probably.

This is one of my go to smokes right here.

Could that be a sandshark? Hard to tell with the lighting.

I notice the atlatl yellow the cello in the right conditions within 3 weeks. I may have to buy all the stock out of those. But I think it has to do with proper conditions more than anything else

Enjoyed it quite a bit for a quick smoke.

actually looks like a "cuban corona", which is in their core line. almost just a wee little bit trumpeted, or slightly belicoso-ish? still, core fuente is a solid fall back, and that is a solid size. o)
