    Usually a dyed maduro is detectable pretty easily as it will leave a dye residue on the lips and sometimes fingers.
    Like the Nestor Reserve Maduro

    Actually Urbi MOST maduros are dyed from what I've been told. I don't know how you tell but I do know that the General Rep told me all General's are and he claimed that all Fuente's were as well.
    From what I've read, a good deal of maduros are cooked, well steamed actually, to create a dark and even coloring...kinda like cutting the corners of the natural maduro process, presumably for quantity over quality. Usually a dyed maduro is detectable pretty easily as it will leave a dye residue on the lips and sometimes fingers.
    I've found the worst offenders of dye residue on fingers and lips are the corojo wrapper cigars. I can't remember the name, but one in particular was infused with a red wine, this was a real stainer. Fairly decent cigar but a bit of a novelity.

    Hm. I hadn't noticed that happening with that cigar, but maybe I just didn't notice it.

    You guys are smart!
    I'm a bit OCD when it comes to researching things I'm interested in. The cigar.com newsletter, cigarcyclopedia.com and Kuzi's guides all have a lot of good info.
