Collection: Albero-labelled Cigar Enquiries

Does the word Albero prove a brand or place of manufacture?

No. It may be a brand, range or packaging mark. Check the stated place of manufacture, box-bottom code, seals and reliable documents rather than reaching a conclusion from the name alone.

Which box-top and box-bottom details should be photographed?

Photograph the complete box top, all printing on the box bottom, seals, cigar count, bands and the full arrangement. Add close-ups of anything hidden by glare or obstruction.

How should wrapper splits, mould or moisture imbalance be handled?

Keep the cigars as found and photograph the affected count and exact locations. Do not wipe them, split the box or raise the humidity suddenly.

When is physical inspection required?

Physical inspection is appropriate when photographs cannot establish the markings, seals, box-bottom code, humidity condition or accessory pairing.
