Glass Top Cohibas

So I am at a BBQ outing where a guy starts passing out his Cohonas. Really bragging about what awesome cubans they are.
When he gets around to me I tell him that no legit, real Cubans come in glass top boxes. His reply: “oh sh*t, you know that?”
Awkward.

That's how you know your true friends, by the level of honesty you receive from them.

Plus, who does not love a good Faux-Hiba?


Cheers!

I have smoke a few glass top Cohonas myself under similar circumstances. I did not make any comment about the cigars in question being fakes. I will admit one of these glass top cigars was actually very good. The other two were not very good at all.

Yep, unless someone asks if you know whether it is real, that seems a reasonable way to handle it.
