    Inside the Hilton Hotel, they sell "Cuban" Barber poles.  They taste like bird feces. 
    Sorry, that's all I got.  Been years since I've been. Enjoy

    there's an lcdh in the hotel zone, just down the street from the kukulcan mall.  only place for legit cc's.  definitely pay a premium for it though since they know all the gringos will pay extra dinero for cubans. 

    pro tip:
    the guys walking up and down the beach selling glass top cc sampler boxes are selling fakes.  but if you tell em "no thanks" for the glass top cigars, they'll try to sell you sticks & stems instead (avoid, also low quality). 



    best bet for something "cigar related"....is take your own smokes and post up on the beach with some cervezas.  muy bien.

    Uhhh you do know who was asking for advice?  I'm not sure if a cannon ball can Skydive!!!  Just kidding Brian.  I have no idea about Cancun.  Just had to poke the bear.

    Yeah, this is about what i figured.  

    so in short:

    glass top cohibas are totally legit
    get barberpole cubans
    and then go to lcdh and pay 35 for a Cohiba Maduro

    got it.

    Hell, I was in a "cigar shop" right here in my home town today and the guy wanted $25.99 for a Cohiba toro tubo....  Musta had a gold-plated wrapper......

    Also stay away from the guys with cigars laid out on the table at your resort, not so legit. 

    You can grab some at the store as you pass immigration before you head to your shuttle at the airport.  Also a little pricey but another way to get some legit CC's.  Otherwise, bring your own.

    Life is too short to smoke bad cigars!!!

    IMHO. This is the best advice right here for Cancun.
