A tale of two CI Legend Yellow Labels

[AD720]

So I have a few CI Yellow Label's (DPG). It is a beautiful night so I figured I'll light up my first one. There was a pretty noticeable difference in the color of one vs. the others so I though I'd share. It might be hard to tell due to my crappy pics.







Anyone ever notice this kind of discrepancy? (BTW the one I choose is smoking great, these are excellent!)

Probably from two different boxes...

Is one older than the other or did you get them together?

[AD720]

One is older. I did get them from separate boxes. One came from one trade and the 5 others from a different trade. I am smoking one from the 5er trade, which is the "yellower" looking one, it is still excellent.

I have seen differences in sticks from different boxes before but although it might be hard to tell (i am not a great photographer) but the difference is major. I'm not complaning, but just wanted to see if anyone else had noticed it.

I hadn't noticed it prior to now but I went and checked my humi and sure enough the other 6 from that lot I traded you look different from my older ones, but I've had both recently and the taste and construction are the same for the most part so must just be box variation.

What Pepin blend to these compare to? I'm kinda interested in some.

They are different from any other Pepin I've had so its hard to compare

Oh and check your PM

I have yet to try the Yellow label, but I have had other cigars that differed in color from box to box. They always seemed to tast the same regardless of variations in wrapper color.
