Just to add my two cents in. I have recently been given several boxes of so-called CUBAN cigars. Siglos 3, 4's and esplendidos, Montecristo's and Rand J. These were in New boxes and with all the seals and Holograms. I took them to my local friend at a Holy Smokes shop.
The ones I had were all fake. The boxes were real and they had the cigars had the latest updated bands. The lengths were off and the colour consistency was bad.

These were all purchased in Cuba by a GUY that everyone went to when they went to cuba.

Most cannot tell a real cuban cigar from a fake one.

I do not like the phrase "Fake Cuban" because if the cigar is from Cuba, then its a real cuban cigar with cuban tobacco. I have never found cuban clones from cuba made with out of country tobacco. They may be fake cohibas but its still cuban tobacco if its from cuba.
