Try some Santa Clara 1830's.....they are a decent Mexican smoke. Personally, I don't care much for Te-Amo. Can't give you any info on where to get them....sorry.
Where the hell is MadMan when you need him? Maybe Matthew will see this and give you some info.
Thanks I'm new to Cigar smoking I didn't know about the Santa Clara 1830's I'll mention them to my brother in law well he is not going till mid april I'm sure someone on here will know where to buy good smoke in the Mayan rtiviera.

They had a decent selection and a nice little smoking lounge/bar upstairs. Unless things have changed dramatically, there won't be many (reputable) choices down that way.
Im going down to the Myan Riveria in april. My plan is that as soon as i get off the plane in Cancun I will ask the cab driver to recomend a few places we can check out on the way to the hotel. If im not satisfied I will ask around the hotel staff and see that they say. Im sure someone will know of a non-tourist priced place.
Ture the key is to find a non tourist place it will increase the chance of not get fakes. So you might end up on the same resort as my brother in law he is going 28 March to 4 April
If you are going to Cancun I would recommend stopping by the Habano S.A. store. It is located near a mall featuring "the chocolate factory" restaurant. Also there are 2 decent little cigar shops within that mall its self.
Im going April 12-18. I am going to try the Habanos S.A. store. Im also going to try and find a non tourist spot. I will report back what I find.
