Cigar Mystery

I was recently gifted a cigar and I can't figure out what kind it is....... Here's the deal: The cigar comes wrapped in what looks like an old New York Daily Mirror news paper clipping that has news of the trade embargo enacted on Cuba. I could probably just unwrap it and see what it is, but it looks kinda cool the way it is. So, anybody seen this cigar before and know what it is?

I sent an email to the person that gave it to me and haven't heard back yet. I'm really curious to find out what it is......

    Sounds like a Cuban Counterfiet. Possibly a JRs brand.

    Yep, I've seen it. I can't remember the name of it, but it's not a fake Cuban. It's a real cigar. IIRC, the company that made them went out of business almost as soon as they shipped. It was something like that. I've got one tucked away, somewhere. They sold for $3-4, I think.

    That sounds like an Exile cigar.

    I second that. I had an Exile cigar that had the paper on it.

    It is an Exile. Confirmed from the gifter. Thanks for the help, guys!
