My gardener, quite the eccentric individual, mentioned in conversation that he had acquired through blind auction some 20 years ago a box of Cuban Cigars called Peste Negra (Black Death)...

He says the cigars look like they are wrapped like a mummy would be...

He also says the remainders all have the original bands and may or may not be in tubes (I didn't ask if they were in tubes but he said they are in nice authentic thingies with gold seal thingies on them... He's obviously a cigar enthusiast as well as a poet)

He claims after smoking one he was sick for three days and never smoked a cigar again....

Has anyone ever heard of these?

Nope. Twenty years is not that old and there are sufficient records online and in books, etc… to say that these are most likely not Cuban cigars. At least not an official release of any of the major brands. Pictures of the bands, dimensions, etc...would also be helpful to see exactly what this guy is talking about. Sounds fishy all around to me.
