Jeeze, my thoughts exactly!

In regards to the like 97% of Cubans here are fake I don't have a source to cite but it can be googled. Wen I was on my quest to buy Cubans,being half Cuban myself, I did some asking of my family and looked around on the web.
When asking my family in and around Miami they found that most of the Cubans we know say that most of them are fake also. At least the ones sold here and not through Habanos supplied vendors. I've gotten my hands on some that were brought in and THEN sent to me and I've bought some damn tasty sticks that are supposed to be Cubans here. They were still good but questionable. I'd do some asking here but from what I've read it's a huge no no. I'll get some, somehow, eventually. All in good time.
I can't wait til the day I can wrap my paws around a delicious Chiba Siglo II!

Have a good day!
