Yes, Dustin. These are real. There is really not a huge counterfeit market for non-cubans. These preferidos come in 5 different wrappers, I believe. These are very much overpriced on this site in your link. The MSRP on these is about half the single price quoted and I would be happy to mail one out to you if you are interested. The tubos are slightly more expensive, but can be found for around 15.00 each. The preferidos are great cigars, imho.
