Please excuse my curiosity here folks, but those bands look different than the box of WOAM's split with a BOTL a few month's ago. Did Fuente change the bands recently?

Not at all man. Relax. Just trying to find out if Fuente changed the bands since my last box purchase or WOAM's. They're different than the box I received. Hell... maybe I have the fakes - knowing how much WOAM's are faked.

Ha ha ha! Man I'm just messing with ya. I did put them up side by side with my otheR Work Of Art regular and the band did match. It's a 2011 as well though. The best seller did look different though

Too big to be Short Stories... but maybe Best Sellers at 4-1/2" x 54. That would explain the difference in the band from the WOAM.

It's possible but I have a best seller and it's rounded on top instead of the torp head.
Iv got Charles (betadawg) sending me some best seller maddies this week in a trade, let's see what they look like
But like I said, I have a natural WOA and it's has the same band as these that Steve sent

I'm no expert, but I noticed last year, the bands changed on the hemis, not the other lines. Used to be the green, black, and white trim meant more of what they were, and all said gran reserva. Unless you were familiar with vitolas, you couldn't tell the difference between Hemi, don Carlos, and sun growns by band. All had black trim, some cedar wrapped, some with foot bands in red or black, some naked. Any way, they are 2011 WOAM out of sealed box, opened for this hit.

Enjoy them.

I also don't remember the name of the S&B. An encyclopedia, I am not. Too many cigars, too many names, too little memory.

^^^ Thanks for the info. That's all I was trying to find out is if Fuente changed the bands. Have a hard enough time identifying with the different bands as you state. Wasn't aware they where changing them. Thanks again.
