Prominentes sized cigars were rolled, and then cut down to fit the space in the humidor, creating a unique factory size. The cigar has no official name, however was reffered to as "Vegueron" ("Big Vegueros") internally by the factory. "Cepo" would appear to be a misreading of text referring to the ring gauge.
