Cigar Desection

Da Klugs · 07-06-2011, 08:38 AM

Cool! Dissection can also be fun when dealing with "obvious fakes". Some counterfeit cigars are rolled with whatever they can find to fill them up. They are not meant to fool anyone but the guy handing over some bucks on the street or beach. We took apart a "Beach Cohiba" (cigar someone bought on a beach) and found little bits of rubber, what looked like a tampon string, grass, leaves, etc. Interesting side note... this cigar was in the "punishment puff puff pass" and didn't win the title of "worst cigar". That, for some, went to the Gurkha Viper. Pretty interesting.

Oh the shame the Viper must feel after losing to a tampon string cigar!

Think of the guys who smoked the rubber and tampon string and thought it better than the viper.
