Fresh Rolled Cigars?

Fresh rolled to me means right from the roller's hands to me. I have smoked a few in my time, and as TF said, I find them a bit wet to enjoy, but the experience itself made it worth my while.

Same experience for me. I consider a fresh roll something that was rolled right there or at least rolled within a couple of days.

I am not sure I would consider something I buy in a box as a fresh roll. Might be more of a marketing gimmick. If the box sits around for six months, not exactly fresh anymore.

With that said a lot of NCs are aged before they are shipped, so this is probably the distinction they are trying to make.
