El Presidente Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I had a great laugh yesterday of some of the Habanos cigar rumours over the years. Lets see if we can start a list. Rumour: No 1 All Cuban Cigars from the same vitola use the same blend. Only the band and box differs. Add as many as you can. One per post.
Jimmy2 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Cuba uses other tobacco from other countries to blend in to their cigars.

tucomapache Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 "I got real cuban cigars for you my friend" Heard this a million times in Mx.
Colt45 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Montecristo Edmundos have been cut down to fill a run of Petit Edmundos.
Cohiba007 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 All of (insert size here) are really the same. The cubans just put different bands on them.
perfectform Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Funny, I just saw something worthy of this today on another forum from a supposedly knowledgable guy about Cohiba. "The Cohiba regular production cigars have seen their day come and go. The Esplendidos I have are great but all the other Cohibas are crap." "Not worth my time especially with so many outstanding options out there."
cigarros Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 The cigar tip should be dipped in cognac etc. So Mr.Churchill did.

"My cousin works in the factory" Not really "Habanos" but heard countless times.
laficion Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Bring the cigar to your ear and with your thumb and index finger roll the cigar as to "listen to the band " But most important, don't forget to stick a tooth pick in the head of your cigar for a better draw.
laficion Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Finally this is the best one, " To best conserve your cigars, put them in your refrigerator "

There was a picture posted on CA a year or two ago of what certainly looked like a worker in a Cuban cigar factory doing exactly this. The description was that he was filling boxes of Petit Edmundos from cut down Edmundos. The picture has since been removed but I'm sure I'm not the only person here to have seen it.
Van55 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Cuban cigars contain traces of marijuana or other drugs. http://www.marijuana.com/urine-testing/364...-marijuana.html
smpf67 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Pure, white ash from a burning cigar is a sign that it is an authentic, high quality Habanos.
El Presidente Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 These cigars are made from pre embargo Cuban tobacco
