Received the following info from a reputable source regarding the Bespoke and PE in 2013. I personally would not buy anything from PE.
For example, Puro Express sells Bespoke custom rolled cigars. Initially they said they were from Cuba, now they say they are not. Why? Because LCDH called them out and that inventory was never documented. Mercer also had a bad clash. They said they were getting custom rolled from Robaina. I do not doubt they were. Nino called them out and asked Robaina (on film) if they were supplying Mercer. Robaina denied it, said well maybe a couple. Now Mercer looks like a fool and that was a bad move on Nino's, because Robaina looks bad as well. So this may be a something that is culminating for a while.
checkout cigarinspector.com/puroexpress. There you will see a couple of years of reviews. You will see a lot of Yay's in the beginning and a few nay's. Pay attention to the timeline; the Chicago Customs fiasco and the arrest of Manuel Garcia plays in here. Everything is great, and it starts to go downhill. Notice the continued pattern of: "very young" cigars that aren't supposed to be young, mold, wet, cracked, dry, green. The introduction of Bespoke Custom rolls after Manuel Garcias arrest. What is happening? The original owners sold the company somewhere after the Chicago seizures/Manual Garcia arrest. Took too many hits on the seizures and Garcia stopped supplying them. So they went into "grey market" cigars. Cigars that can't be verified, because the serial #'s are cut out. I don't think they had serial numbers in the first place, they just cut out the box to make you think they do.
