I have 1 question for you:

1. Didn't your parents ever tell you not to judge a book by it's cover?
How many people bash on fake CC's around here that haven't even tried them?

They're real cigars too, just marketed to be something they are not. So is it...

There's so many good cigars on the market and I'll personally never be able to try them all. Why would I want to wast my time on a cigar that can't stand on its own merit and not be marketed like some poser?

and i'm not saying you're stupid. the intent of this cigar is clear - to trick the inexperienced into buying what they think are cohibas.

Having talked to the rep, and seen what Altadis has done with the new NC Trinidad bands, I don't think they are trying to trick anyone, they want to get their brands aligned for when the embargo ceases to exist. They are establishing their brand here for when they can provide multiple versions. Will some people buy them because they look like Cohiba's? Probably. It's been going on for longer than this, and will go on for longer than this cigar will last.

I'm a fan of smoke it, if it's worth it, buy it, if not, don't. BTW, I have tried that cigar, doesn't do much for me, too light, not enough flavor.
