it happens more often then it doesn't. All you know is what the manufacturers want you to know. It's quite different from the liquor industry which has bi-laws and regulation. Age statements and regions are 100% legit in the liquor industry. ex. Scotch must be made in Scotland from 100% malted barley, Tequilla must be made in the tequila region of mexico from aquave etc...
it's true.

Sam it's good to see you back.
Sam speaks the truth here. This is why there are so many cigars with claims of being "cuban when they are honduran, nicaraguan, or dominican. Or they make caims of being 12 years old.

The cigar industry is free game.
