Correct, Left is the fake. Dots are a little off, Cohiba naming is a little too large, and the triple cap on the right one versus a double on the left.
Absolutely correct. A great smoke can be good real or fake
I would beg to differ on this, anyone with any skill rolling either rolls for a factory or for themselves or both...anyone that can roll and is trying to fake a brand the product will be garbage, that I am certain of...

That wasn't the entire quote, so now it's misrepresented, the last part was the kick to explain the odds. I'm sure there is a great tasting cuban fake out there somewhere, someone must make one...I am not going to search for it, but there is a very high likelihood that it exists.
Here's the dead giveaway...on the bottom of the "C", the little tail that loops over and through the bottom. On the real Cohiba band that doesn't happen, but there are quite a few fakes that use the incorrect font.
1] I received a few "PUNCH" CGARS from a friend of mine last week he had them sitting in his bedroom for about 3 months, they are hard and if I were to bend them they would probably crumble, I am going to do what I have done in the past. find a HUMI that U are not using, if not use a plastic ziplock bag. it will take about 5-6 months before you even think about smoking it. so back to the repair. if U have a box that is sealed, put the CGAR in the box and put a shot glass in the box with the stogy. this is the safest way I was told buy a gentleman at CIGAR AFAC Magazine. 2] I'm going to post my COHIBA STICK I paid $16.00 for it, so let's compare , mine came out of a sealed varnished COHIBA box from CUBA and I have seen many fakes this is very real as well as yours I beleive do not quote me but here it is.
MY PICTURES SUCK, SORRY ABOUT THAT, anyway try the trick for the stick, I don't mean to be a ***, I feel very sick, my wife is having a fit see ya later
Why do people do this *** to us. I see my COHIBA has the tail on the C and the picture I see is no way like my fake efen COHIBA, Thank You, my friend got taken he paid $600 for the box

because individuals can be greedy. they want a cut of what someone else has succeed in.
sorry to hear your friend was taken. Live and learn.
It's that Cohiba name, people see it and want it. Sorry to hear your friend got taken so badly, that really sucks. If it were up to me, I'd take the counterfeiters and hang them by their toes while a bunch of ripped off cigar smokers got to go at them with bamboo canes...then throw them in prison for a while.
I took the COHIBA FAKE back to my friend, he got on the phone with the tobacco wholesaler who sold him the box, he is not only getting his $600 back he is getting 5 boxes of PUNCH RARE COROJO for not turning the guy in, he also gave me 3 ALEC BRADLEY PRES. AND 2 LA AROMA EE for my troubles. his friend {so called} gave him a big story on how he had the COHIBA'S brought in the the US. I said it was easy, they were fakes. this picture is not of an EE I do not have a picture of me smoking one as of yet
Anyway thank U so much for all your help today
He's getting his money back? That's fantastic, I'm happy to hear it. Sounds like the guy who sold them did so not knowing they were counterfeit ( I hope), which goes to highlight what Steve mentioned, the need to know what you're buying before you buy it. Cuban cigars are definitely a "buyer beware" market, diligence is a must.
