I've heard too many contradicting stories of this. The one I believe the most is that they were authenic cuban cigars just shipped via the grey market.

That is my understanding as well Cliff.



This has been commented on by a few very knowledgeable, foreign habanos smokers and retailers and that seems to be their conclusion as well.
