Has anyone seen this Cohiba? Cohiba 40 Aniversario 1966-2006

6 rows of dots would be the first thing that would make me say "huh"...

With all this confusion I'm really curious so I'll go over there right now and have a word with this guy. I'll post when I get back.

The authentic 35th anniversary Cohiba band. Notice the 6 rows of dots


googling "Cohiba 40th anniversary" yields this image


Just because they are labeled as Dominican, and dont say "Cohiba" on them dosesnt make them "non-fake"

If there are more like the first one I smoked then who really cares if they're fake?

So would you be happy with a fake Rolex that you paid a premium for just because it told time properly?

It might be a good cigar, but the intent to deceive is there, and I would really care if they were fake.

For the record I agree with Kool Moe D... I wouldn't buy or smoke these...

I think they were made to deceive unwitting customers and any Cigar Merchant that knows a lick about cigars knows that. If your willing to shell out $13 a pop for something pretending to be something else then enjoy. Otherwise, Move along.

It was a mistake... but maybe they'll be enjoyable at the very least so i won't feel as bad about supporting a fake cigar.

Oh and Pauly, Here's a tip for you along the same subject:

If you ever come across Pinar Cigars, Run away as fast as you can! A big load of BS. Probably bigger then the Cohiba's you bought. Read the link below.
