Somebody told me that they're NC's and that Cuban RyJ doesn't have a 125th so I guess I'll move this.

After further research, it appears they are fakes.

Edit: Actually, they ARE real, just not Habanos. I found a press release from 2000 describing this release. These are the 007 James Bond commemorative 125th Anniversary RyJ cigars.

A quick hint.

If the cigar is inside of the cellophane, they are NOT hand roll Cuban.

You will find some machine rolled cuban, some with "hand finished" in the cello, but they don't go beyond corona gorda size.

Re: Romeo y Julieta 125th Aniversario (unopened)

Hah! I was wondering why I had two of the threads in the General area. The Mods moved one of them out of the Habanos section to here, this one I think. Yes, I know they aren't Cuban. The Cuban release was in a different (hand carved) humidor and contain 50 cigars in two different sizes, one of them discontinued and one brand new. Totally different package and smokes. However, somebody who's had both said the NC smokes where actually better than the CC smokes. Interesting...
