The La Perla Habana Morado is the one with the cedar sleeve and purple cloth foot band and is from 2007. The name is still sold here and at CI but it is not the same cigar.

Now, before mama bear jumps all over me, sure, the tobacco may be the same type, seed, growing region, yada yada which all changes year to year, however, the marketing for this particular cigar has remained the same. As Anthony alluded to, these newer yet same but different Morados claim the "93 rating" but are just not the cigar that actually received that rating....unless it's the one with cedar sleeve and purple foot band.
