Vortigan Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Just impossible not to share this! Watch the first 7 minutes and then from about 23 minutes onwards.Take a seat,whatever you're thinking it's far,far worse!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9KyEWMBuYQ
Cohiba Stevie Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Hmmm... Im actually dissappointed because both him and the lady seem like really nice people, its a shame nobody has told them what they actually are. But i have a feeling the original sender had no idea they were fakes either. Ah well.
Rushman Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Well they are happy...that's all that really counts. The guy who gifted them probably thought they were the real thing. If so, good for him. If someone gifted me a baseball card collection that wasn't legit I wouldn't know. The gift is the point. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=21.523955,-87.381393
CBL Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 I agree, they seemed to be over the moon with the cigars. Doesn't matter that they're fake. He was more excited about the knives anyway. Still horrible to see a Cohiba with a barber pole wrapper though
Justmi Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 I feel really sorry for them, but they had fun. Its like that moment when you commit a faux-pas in a dinner party. Everybody cringes, then it clicks and you cringe. Obviously it hasn't clicked for them yet. When I was green behind the ears in my first job, I wanted to sound sophisticated and ordered a scotch off the shelf on our Friday night out. Barman says "Sure, what you like sir." I'm stumped. My coworkers look at me. I pointed to a green bottle. "That's Jameson. Its Irish, sir."
ramon_cojones Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 LOL!!! Damn I want to send them some real cigars just to make up for that. And who sends a partial box? If you're going to send singles take them out of the box at least.
CaptainQuintero Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Damn shame they do look like really nice people. Pity the sword is a fake/flea market replica too :S At least the knives look great!
Ghabanos Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 I am just as interested in her friends necklace... In all seriousness. I feel so bad. Posted for everyone to see. Sux
Jnaube Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Why go trough all the trouble of making the box, a relatively nice job with the band and mess it up with a sh-:$&tty barber pole wrapper. These fake cuban makers will never cease to amaze me
Justmi Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 I want everyone to eat their words when we find out these are the autumn LE release.
Styler Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 I wish my wife got that excited when I bring cigars home. I do feel really bad for these guys, especially when she she says to her daughter "This is your heritage". I had a scan through the comments and couldn't see anyone that had just come out and told them they were fakes. On one hand it's a shame to ruin the special moment these brought and may continue to bring, on the other hand though if it was me I'd be pretty pissed if I found out that a whole forum was talking about it behind my back but no one told me.
canadianbeaver Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 They would not know the difference if you gave them real ones. Look what happened with my dad and his Fauxhibas?
Cohiba Stevie Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 They would not know the difference if you gave them real ones. Look what happened with my dad and his Fauxhibas? I didn't know your dad's Cohibas turned out to be fakes! thats a real bummer. But as you say its the thought that counts.
Ophidion Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Wait, my barber pole Cohibas are fake!? WES! How could you!
jedipastor Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Sad indeed. I'm a little surprised that people of Cuban heritage would be so easily duped. Maybe just the power of suggestion--Cuban cigars are awesome, this is a Cuban cigar, so it's awesome. Still most fakes I've smoked have been BAAAAAAAD cigars.

seanbeer Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 its ok, as long as they never found out.
Guest RobbieG Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 AJ Fernandez Sol Cubanos barber poles? Did you hear that tobacco crunching like dried leaves when he was rolling it in his fingers? Shame cause he seems like a real sweetheart of a guy...
nikesupremedunk Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 you noobs saying these are fakes...there were 100 very limited boxes of the sublimes that were collaborated with Arturo Fuente to create the "Between the Lines" Cohiba EL's. its ok, as long as they never found out. too late...look at the comments
dangolf18 Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Lol, goes to show you what kind of cigars the average person smokes considering this guy thinks fake cubans are great. Why would counterfeiters even bother with the barber pole...do people really think that's what cuban cigars look like?
Rays98GoVols Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Wow, but they do seem like nice people...
