Warning, high quality con (fakes) in the market

[kinglingcheng]

To all my OZ people buying and enjoying cigars  , i just found couple high quality con(fakes) brands and specific models in the common market, i cut it open ,and pretty bad thus.

1) Cohiba Sigole I  , good finish on the cohiba band, triple cap but pretty hard to find the third one ,  smoke really weird like u drinking some excreta full cream coffee but plastic feeling, wraps easily got off after 1/2 

2) Cohiba Robusto 

3) Hoyo De Monterry Petit Robusto 

4) Monticristo Petit Edmundo 

All the high fake cons reminds from HK market asian pacific market , no bs 

 

regards

Personally, I think I'm fine. Like many others here at FoH, I get my stock from El Pres. They look Cuban, taste Cuban and smoke Cuban (I mean, in terms of the resistance I get from the draw). Like so many here have said, ultimately, you have to 100% trust your vendor.

Having said this, I can understand how Cuban cigars can be sold in the market as clever fakes. After all, even Charlie Chaplin and Dolly Parton lost lookalike contests!

I don't know, John. According to what I read on the internet, watched on Youtube and listened to pundits, the ash must be white to be a real Cuban cigar....

Where did you get these cigars? Mind to share the website/store name so we can avoid them?

Ha...come to think of it, it's probably more common for celebrities to lose lookalike competitions than win them.
