Do you know if litigation is still ongoing or is this resolved and when was the lawsuit started? Very interesting, I'm surprised Cuba doesn't have a lawsuit, since the band is so similar to CC Cohiba.

I'll have to give them a smoke in a couple months and post a review. If they suck, at least they'll be a cool little keepsake.





Thanks to all that responded and any info or site is much appreciated.
