Nat Sherman
So my wife goes into Nat Sherman's on 5th Ave, NYC, and shows them a La Luna Maduro Fuerte band. She asks for a 'comparable' cigar (she knows nothing about cigars, but she does know I like LLMFs ). The salesman says 'Oh yes, here is OUR version of that cigar'. They sell her these VIP Selection Carnegies, and here's the kicker... THEY'RE NOT EVEN MADURO. As a matter of fact, they're about as far from maduro as you can get (they're very claro, with a slightly green tint... but not candela). Anyway, I'm sure the salesman got a nice commission for knowing very little about his trade. She has been instructed to avoid Nat Sherman at all costs in the future.
