Fakes in the D.R.

Sorry to thread jack here!

Damn. Dreams Punta Cana was where I bought and smoked my first "real Cohiba". It was on my honeymoon.

I mentioned it in a thread here

O-well. I guess for our anniversary I will have to track down and smoke a real one!

Sad news but I would rather know the truth. Thanks for the info.

Back to the thread-

^^^ Wow man, I feel like a real A hole. And to save your fantastic memory from your honeymoon, lets consider the following:

a.) I'm human, and could easily be wrong, and it wouldn't be the first time, nor the last.

b.) maybe some of the Cohibas were actually real, but when I saw the glass tops, I wrote the rest off regardless.... but who is to say the rest couldn't have actually been real.

See, I think thats enough doubt to wonder whether or not what you smoked was the real deal or not, and besides, it ain't about the brand in the end, its the taste, and its the the people and experience.

No reason to feel bad man. I started smoking and had a good time down there.

I am living and learning and smoking lots of cigars.
