Marlon gave me a stick that he has had in his humi forever and even he doesn't know what it is.

It came in a glass tube and the cigar was wrapped in spanish cedar and it had a cork, which also had a small round piece of cedar on top of the cork.

It's hard to read, but the band on the outside of the tube says D'OR CALIDAD SUPREMA with the roman numerals MDCCXCII here's a couple of pics out of the tube

I did a google search, but the only Calidad's I could find had the initals J.R. on the band, so I am assuming that is not it, and the Calidad site itself offered no pics.

Anyone want to take a stab at this?

The logo on the band look similar to one from here (http://www.cubacollectibles.com/cuba-tl-h-cabanas-carvajal-tobacco.html). Another site (http://www.cubancigaraficionados.com/cabanas-cigars.php) says that the Cuban version was deleted from the Habanos portfolio in 2005 and that there's a non-Cuban brand with the same name.
Not sure if this helps or not...

I have some cc Cabanas. They are celloed machine mades. little bitty things.
The logo is the same, but the band isn't remotely close. My guess is that's the non-cc version.
Probably a churchill from JR's. (http://www.jrcigars.com/index.cfm?page=cigars&brand=CABANAS%20Y%20CARBAJAL)
