"Yellow Band" Dominican 'Cohiba'???

100% fake.

Altadis makes a brand called 'Siglo" which I guess are marketed as Cohiba look-a-likes. They have Nicaraguan and Dominican leaf.

From what I have read...These were the 1st Red Dot Cohibas sold here in the US, the Yellow band with the Dominca (sp?) are for sale only in the Dominican Republic.

Never had one my self. Thankfully from what i have read its not a "Good" cigar.

Not sure why you would say they are fake. They clearly state "Dominican Repoblic" I have seen these before and I believe they are the first rendition of the Altadis Cohiba line as previously stated. Obviously not Cuban, but the Dominican incarnation of the brand.

Correct. I've heard mixed reviews over these ... hopefully they're decent cigars.
