Habana Clube mystery solved

Well fortunately, I didn't get my hopes up too much. There fake. Here's the e-mail I received from Davidoff.

Dear Jonathan,

Thank you for contacting us and sorry for delayed reply since I was nearly 2 weeks out
of the office.

Such “Davidoff” Habana Club cigars were not made in Cuba but in Brazil by a third party
and are therefore not “genuine Davidoff cigars” but fake Davidoff’s.

Best regards.

René Hollenstein
