Naaaah, just a spirited debate....

and fat Wisconsin chick jokes are always a crowd pleasr..

[quote=jimbud]Thanks for clarifying. And you are right that if the Cuban people take offense at that term, that is news to me. I used the term to refer to the cigars from Cuba, not the country or people. Based on what I have seen, the phrase's etimology seems to stem from the desire of some not to specifically reference cigars that are illegal. If it is a derogatory term that some use outside the cigar context to refer to Cuba, I did not know that. [/quote]

Like many things, some whom I know do take offense to the term, some whom I know don't. *shrug*

At this point, I think the government is quite aware of what ISOM often refers to. I'm sure it worked for awhile though.

That's because you're from ASSO.

(ASSO = A State South of Oklahoma)

OK, I'm a noob when it comes to CC's, had a couple of cohibas and they were incredible.

I'm seriously interested in a couple of box splits with a seasoned vet, preferably Cohiba Eslpenditos or Robusto and PSD4 or you choose one of your favorites. I'm patient so I don't have a problem aging them a couple years.

PM me please!!

for starters

I have been doing a ton of research on cubans and specifically fake bands. It's really depressing how rampant the situation is. There is almost no definitive example of anything anymore. I'm bummed to say the least. Should I spend the extra money and try to find some at an LCDH if I'm ever in the area or have someone pick them up for me? I have even heard that some LCDH's sell fakes, hearsay but my quest for more information has left me with too many questions and certainly unsure if I should buy any cubans.

Rant over.

Gracias, I probably shouldn't have ranted so hard but I was frustrated with doing research for so long and not getting anywhere. I think I might have gotten burned yesterday but can't prove it for sure which is annoying.

Know your source.....find a vendor you can trust, and stick with them.

Buying Cubans private party (I.e OLH) is risky business. Again, know your source. If you don't, I would ask plenty of questions at the very least before pulling the trigger.

You're almost better off mooching for CCs than buying private party. That way at least you wouldnt be out of pocket any money if you ended up with fakes.

I'd go with the find a good vendor route first though. Mooching will always be there when you need it.
