 I've seen what you are describing at a few of the finer B&M's I've visited while in Panama.  One even had a very little humidification stone in the cap, and it was intended to seal the humidity in.  I believe these tubes were made locally and intended for the gentile man who purchases a single to enjoy later.  They were sold with a locally produced cigar, I tried one, wasn't bad, but to fellow running the store mentioned that often customers will dispose of the Panama cigar for one of their more desired sticks.
