Weird. Couple days after this thread started I just saw some of these at a local B&M today. They were next to an array of other cigars definitely (and shamelessly) imitating Habanos.

These other cigars were all unbanded, and were in individual little containers labeled like so:

"Cuba's Famous Brands
Comparable to:
Bolivar Royal Corona"

There were "PSP2"s, "CORO"s and a few others. Nothing else about them, except for "Made in the Caribbean" and "Similar in color, size and construction to Cubans" lol.

Anybody seen these?

@bobarian
Of course everything you said is true, but that wasn't what I or the others were saying. I was merely saying Cohibas have been made since 1966, which they have. The branding and public introduction don't have anything to do with it. Hence when the actual Cohiba 40th Aniversario (the Behike) was released.
