I live in Spain, so my local tobacconists stock all the Cubans and little else. Despite what you think, I'm envious of YOU guys.

A friend unknowingly bought some Cohiba fakes in Mexico that had a holographic seal on the box the fiver came in. The image on the seal showed the island of Cuba but instead of "Cuba" emblazoned across the island it said "Aqui". On the back of the box, burned into the wood where it's supposed to say "Totalmente a Mano" it said "Totalmente a nana" or "Totally by grandma".
We opened one up expecting to find grass, horse turds, nylon cord, etc. but it all looked like tobacco so one of the guys smoked the others and said they weren't too bad. Ya just never know.... ??
Yeah, the Mexicans are just yanking our chain with stuff like that. Lol. The hologram really looked impressive until you look close and realize what you're seeing.
I didn't make that up - I've still got the box. ??
