My Bro-in-law presented me with a stick on my recent family Christmas at the folks.

I appreciate the gesture, I really do.

Maybe you can give him and yourself a gift; tell him about cigar.com and help him join the forum. Also; the link for Cigar afficiando's counterfit page. :twisted:

Sorry about the stick. I'm sure you had to bite your tongue and lie about how much you apprecaited the gesture. :grumble:
 
LOL!

I had taken a selection of nice stix with me, but the opportunity never came up for a group smoke. I was going to try and educate him a little by letting him smoke a Cusano 18 or Partagas series P.

It was a nice gesture though. :D

I know how you feel with those Dominican Cohiba fakes. I also received one as a gift, and just said thanks, and that I had never had one. And I never will.......

So instead, you decided to send them to your buddy Kelvin - you are the best BP! :rotflmao:
 
yea, it kinda sucks when you come accross some one who thinks they have some really great cigar they paid 20 bucks for but its really garbage. how can you tell some one that? i usually just nod and smile.
 
What can I say? That's the way I am.

Oh, btw, that box of Choixs you were sending me hasn't arrived yet? What's up wit dat?

:D :D :D
 
Let's break this down...I sent you a box - it had a Choix in it....thus...a box of Choix. I am a helluva guy. :roll:
 
I still have one game to go - looks like I am in a war wtih MIKES/Bengals next week.
 
I saw the thread about this, but never followed up on it. I asssume that the checkerboard Cohibas are fakes and the Red Dots are the real thing, or is it more complicated than that?
-D
 
are all red dot cohibas DR? and all DR cohibas are all red dot?

All the Red Dot are DR. But not all DR Cohiba's are Red Dot. They also make the XV.
 
Now that I'm smoking cigars and my friends, family, and co workers know this. I'm wondering what kinds of cigars I may recieve for a gift. I'm sure they all know nothing about cigars, so it should be interesting. Maybe we should have a contest. Who ever gets the worse cigar for christmas wins. Wins what? I dunno, what do you all think.

Holy cow, I got a gift cert from one of my staff yesterday as a Xmas gift to a local cigar shop. I rushed right down to buy a nice Xmas eve cigar. Damn, they had these same Cohiba cigars, $10 bucks a piece (churchill). The shop owner told me that cohiba makes these to be as close as possible to the cubans, thats why they use this lable. I passed, bought a few Punch Tubos. I don't think I'll be buying much there from now on.
