I smoke cigars occasionally, I don't know a lot about cigars. Like I'm at the cigar store, the man behind the counter says "what kind of cigars do you like?" "Uhh... Itsaboys." ~Mitch Hedberg~

Found some info in Halfwheel. https://halfwheel.com/ipcpr-2018-prometheusThe cigar journal also talks about them but the band reads 2014. https://www.cigarjournal.com/fuente-2018-aged-selection-opus22-scheduled-for-november/Not sure if that has to do with harvest date, assembly date or aging barrel date.
QuoteCfickter - 12/15/2018 10:16 AMI would say, as a general rule of thumb, the date shown on the band, is the release date. Look at the TAA releases or the Crowned Heads Las Calaveras as a good examples. While tobaccos can be aged several years, unless it was an exceptional tobacco, it will not generally be called out.
