Ran into some fake COHIBA'S, in the cigar shop at the Nugget in Vegas. They were the yellow labels, from Cuba, only had 4 rows of dots, and said Caribbeans finest, in fine print.
You gotta watch out.

Picked up a box of Conga's from La Perla, 42 bucks for a box of 20. Damn fine cigars, consistent in manufacture and burn, with a medium full taste. I recommend them to all.

Did you know the hystory of the makers of the cohiba caribbeans finest?

They are made by the guy that started rolling cuban cohibas for fidel at el laguito, Mr rivera back in the 60's ,He's got a royalty agreement with habanos to produce and use their band out of the dominican rep also Rum ,cohiba caribbeans finest is the only cohiba alow to be sold in the DR ,not even general cohiba is allowed in the shops of the dominican they can make them on the free zone but that's it ...i notice alot of ignorance with alot of cigar guy's or people in the cigar bzz..read before you judge,i guess we are still a label culture ,we buy because the label brand without knowing what is the hystory of the product...oh well
