    Welcome back, Mark. We should form a Mark Alliance round these parts.

    Hello all, wanted to make a quick intro, as it seems the thing to do.  Been smoking cigars for years, but was usually just whatever looked interesting, and wasn't too expensive.  Slowly building up my palette and finding the flavor profiles I enjoy the most.

    Welcome Blue glad to meet you and hope you stick around. Enjoy your time in Havana, I’d recommend visiting some of the factories if you’re allowed and able to. Otherwise I would highly suggest looking into the killer food around there. I’d go for the food just about as much as the tobacco :)

    /facepalm 

    Thanks! Been looking forward to the trip for the past 6 months, can't wait to actually get there and spend all my money on food/smokes/rum!

    What? Those look authentic.
    Everyone knows those boxes are 100% authentic.

    I love how he gave a closeup pic of the sketchiest label :) 
    I'm sure I'll buy a fiver like those when I'm down there just for a conversation piece. However, I'll be getting a bunch of the real ones as well.

    I don't know what you guys are on about......If you zoom in you can clearly see where it says "Hecho en Cuda" ........ Looks legit.
    Now if it said "Made in Cuba" ...... I would be a little suspicious.  :)

    Oh and welcome to the forum.

    Click on your name and it should take you to where you can change it. Also, your not a fan of flavor? You mean infused or you just like bland cigars?
