Miami101 Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Hi Guys as I stated the fake Cigars are out of control here in Miami. I had a hard time letting a friend know that his collection was all fake. The glass tops gave it alway. If anyone has the real box of Hoyo De Monterrey Limitada 2005. Here we go with some photos: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habanohal Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 LOL......why is it all these fakes in Miami have EAR for box date? They cant be that stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miami101 Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 Don't know....There are other items on this box that is not correct. Most Cigar smokers in Miami can't tell. These guys are old school...really not into over reviewing smokes....just smoking them. Also the $150 price is just right for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARRV Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 If they are going to spend the money on the wonderful printing of the labels why not spend the cash on copying the factory / date stamp correctly? That surely must be the cheapest part of it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudius Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 If anyone has the real box of Hoyo De Monterrey Limitada 2005. The real Hoyo Pyramides were a 2003 EL, not 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TR Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 It seems like a lifetime ago when I cracked my box of hoyomids......I have 5 left I think....man those were much better fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Presidente Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Nice expose Miami Claudius...those HDM look perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudius Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Nice expose Miami Claudius...those HDM look perfect They're nice, smelled wonderful... but they should sort the cigars by roller, and THEN by color IMO: look at all those different heads. No 2 are going to be the same. Number 6 and 7 look perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jokermann Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 The box itself looks pretty good for fakes. It almost seems like they are getting the real raw material (box material) to make some of recent fake boxes I have seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havanaaddict Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I also don't know why they can't put the Warranty Seal and Habanos, Limtada on the correct side of the box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miami101 Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 This is big business some of the guys that work at the Cigar shops down here where level 8 rollers from big Cigar companies in Cuba. From what I know there is a big location in Miami that houses these boxes. I have not found it yet, but I'm working on it. This is a big business down here in Miami.....Fakes, and real.....you can take the people alway from Cuba, but you can't remove Cuba from them. It hard out here so people do what they have to make money....period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeypots Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 What's with the "qualitytskrontrolle" insert? I've not seen that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Japan Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Claudio are you keeping Hoyo's ? IMHO this cigar is one of the best and I'm just curious to know when will they peak ? have you smoked lately some or you just have this box as investment?

bobsled Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I also don't know why they can't put the Warranty Seal and Habanos, Limtada on the correct side of the box Maybe its to get around copyright infringement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudius Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 What's with the "qualitytskrontrolle" insert? I've not seen that before. That's a Intertabak quality control paper slip. It's inserted into the boxes that Intertabak, the official Swiss Habanos importer, insert into the boxes they open and inspect. AFAIAA, they inspect all the boxes. Never seen a box imported by Intertabak without it. I bought these from La Casa del Habano in Geneva, who only sell Intertabak imported cigars.

Sold them a few months ago, but still had the pictures. I dont buy cigars for investment, but I do have one box of first batch Edmundo Dantes that I'll probably sell some day rather than holding on to them or smoking them.
