Miami101 Posted November 15, 2008 Author Posted November 15, 2008 Hi Guys I got this box from a friend some time ago, and got into a big debate with one of my friends about these Cigars. We reviewed the box and the Cigars in it. From the looks of the box it appears to be 100% real, but the Cigar labels look a little different. The print looks a bit different. The cigars were great smokes, but from the looks of it they might be fakes. The box came from Peru as a gift. We're looking to end the debate, so we'd appreciate any insight as to whether these appear legit or fake. Let me know your thoughts. So far it looks real: Here is the Cigar, and label.
Miami101 Posted November 15, 2008 Author Posted November 15, 2008 Hi Thanks for the feedback. I agree with you on the size of the cigars, and why they would make these fake. This was one of my major points. My friend then brought me a cigar label for the same cigar and it was different. The cigars were small, but great smokes. I have been holding on to the last one so I could prove to my buddy I was right... We both agree that the box looks real. I also checked the elements of the box against some sites to determine its validity. We have been talking about this for about a year now. We have picked up lots of other smokes together and shared many great cigars. This is a question we could never figure out. In Miami we find many fakes, but some of them are made very well. Here is another photo: please check it out and let me know your thoughts. Thank you for your help on this.
