If ever I need members input sure could use those inuts now.

Went to one of my friends smoke shop and the owner showed me a leather oval shaped

container with a thermostat (analog) inbebded in the cap / top of the leather container.

The container was about 14" long.  Inside was maybe 25 - 30 Cohiba Esplendidos.

It looks like a form of carring case made just for the Esplendidos.  Has anyone ever come across

or for that matter ever seen one of these.  The bands on the cigars were the older bands on the smokes.

I looked for a date in and outside of this container but no luck.  If this thing legit. please

let me know.  Thanks all.

Doesn't sound like anything I've ever come across or heard of. If you happen to have a picture, I'm sure that would help ...

No don't have a pic. Oval in shape as I stated carries around 25 - 30 Esplendidos.  The leather is stamped

stating there are Esplendidos in the case.  It even has a carring strap as a lask leather holder would have

to carry the bottle around inside.  This is the 2nd time an owner of a smoke shop has asked me if I'd

like to buy a "real" Cuban cigar and then he pulls out this leather Esplendidos carrying case.

Yes!  Is it legit....

I’ve never been able to find any info regarding an official Cohiba leather humidor release, and I’ve seen them pop up on other forums. It’s pretty easy to find the humidors for sale online, so the humidor itself doesn’t lend any credibility to the cigars inside. 

I still kinda want one though...real or not. They look pretty cool.

Make sure to take a look at this fake Behike Leather case string...

My personal rule of thumb is that I conisder ALL Cohibas as fakes unless I am dealing with a vendor that I trust 100% and there are exactly two of those in the entire world for me. YMMV. Good Luck!

I'd say odds are infinitesimally low on these being legit sticks in a custom-made case. Unless they were in an LCDH in Habana with assurances from a friend working in the shop, I wouldn't even consider....and even then???

I have seen a square case with a shoulder strap full of Behike 56s,a nice humi device and a Hydrometer.

well made, cigars looks mouth watering, fake as hell.

similar to this but much more professionaly made.

Well I do thank one and all for your the thoughts on this matter.  That is the beauty of FOH.  The ability to help

a member or even a non-member on something as simple and maybe even boring to some is FOH at it's best.

Tanks again........
