They only use one code per factory at a time. There was a thread on this site that erroneously assigned many codes to factories. I feel that did a big disservice to this community. If you have a current box with a code other than MAR, it was rolled somewhere other than El Laguito. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tstew75 Posted January 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2021 Any code outside the big 4 (MAR, RAT, GEM, TUA) will be extremely hard to pinpoint, especially this early on after code shifts. Consider them all provincial unless you have a compelling argument otherwise... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wailbait Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Is it? I had been operating under the assumption that BSM is the new ARS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember discussing this in another thread, but didn't think we nailed it down. With all these new Trini codes floating around (BSM, GLE, TLU, LTO, MTS, TLE, PSM, GRM) its difficult lol I do want to pinpoint what the new ARS code is however...those 19 boxes are/were epic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear transition on Famosos from ARS to BSM. A large percentage of Trini was ARS (SLE before that) so it's a Pinar factory, but the majority of Trini were MUP and are now GLE (so must be Donatien). So ARS --> BSM, and MUP --> GLE. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDGSN Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 MTS is an interesting one. Some common sticks like Monte No. 2 and Epicure No. 2, but some of the more coveted or rare ones, too. I know people have seen a lot of Trinidad from MTS. On 24:24 last year, MTS showed up for Sancho Panza Belicosos, Cohiba Siglo VI, Cohiba Esplendidos, and Monte Media Coronas. On 24:24 this year, MTS has also been for: Partagas 898 (Jan 8th) (although 24:24 said TLE, mine from this date are MTS) Cohiba Siglo VI (Jan 18th, Jan 29th) Sancho Panza Belicoso (Jan 27th) Monte No. 2 (Feb 11th, Mar 3rd, Mar 5th) HdM Epicure No. 2 (Mar 12th) Cohiba Esplendido (Mar 22nd) H. Upmann Sir Winston (Mar 22nd) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bijan Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 My guess is UTL->MTS. Haven't crunched the numbers enough but that's my guess so far. (Might also be TPO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I am still wondering about how COVID precautions will have effected where rollers are assigned. Maybe it's had zero effect. In any case, so far I would say that LTO has been the best code, better even than MAR. They even released some Cohiba Reserva with an LTO, which one would think confirms they've got some top rollers. But then again it's Cuba, so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaptain Karl Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Not sure if this has been covered but it looks like SOP is the new REG. Most El Laguito no 2’s are being produced there, just like REG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
