Glad to have you whenever you can be here, Mario.

These aren't fakes, they're DR's that have been debranded after production to the best of my knowledge. If these are fakes then so are many of the NC's many of smoke such as RyJ, Partagas, Punch, Brickhouse, etc.

And Pualy, smoke what ever you want man. As I said before, I had two of these and one was great. The other sucked. If I can duplicate the first one then I'd rather pay $13.50 for it at the B&M than 14.00 for a LFD half the size.

Night inmates...

Wise words, but i doubt you'll get some of 'em to budge off their theory. nite!

Moved to the "Other Islands" section as it was agreed from the box pics that this cigar is not purported to be Cuban.

Weird. Couple days after this thread started I just saw some of these at a local B&M today. They were next to an array of other cigars definitely (and shamelessly) imitating Habanos.

These other cigars were all unbanded, and were in individual little containers labeled like so:

"Cuba's Famous Brands
Comparable to:
Bolivar Royal Corona"

There were "PSP2"s, "CORO"s and a few others. Nothing else about them, except for "Made in the Caribbean" and "Similar in color, size and construction to Cubans" lol.

Anybody seen these?

@bobarian
Of course everything you said is true, but that wasn't what I or the others were saying. I was merely saying Cohibas have been made since 1966, which they have. The branding and public introduction don't have anything to do with it. Hence when the actual Cohiba 40th Aniversario (the Behike) was released.

So, if a car manufacturer makes a prototype that becomes an actual for sale model 20 years later, they can claim it has been produced since the beginning? Like I said, if you, or ANYONE ELSE, CUBA INCLUDED, can show me a PRODUCTION box, labels and all, prior to '80s, I will be the first one to admit they were made since 1966. One size, a Lancero, made per someone's personal request and given out as personal gifts, does not make a production cigar last time I checked. See Steve Saka and his Liga Privada (or whatever it is called) cigar line, should Drew Estates now claim the cigar has been in production since Steve smoked the first one?

History has been re-written before, plenty a time, too bad so few have regard for it.

Let's make it easy, SHOW me a Cohiba box with date stamp prior to '80s.

(JOKE):
A husband walks in on his wife in bed with a neighbor. His wife: Who are you going to believe, your loving wife or your lying eyes?

Very on theme for the topic, IMO.

Can you help out with the Yugo's?

I say they were in production since 1970 as were Cohibas in the 60's.
