Bhk 56

[Tnt Cigarguy]

So yeah um while I was at a local b&m today in Thousand Oaks CA a guy comes in gloating about smoking a BHK 56. I got him to let me take a picture so here it is.

And no I didn't have the heart to tell him he was celebrating.

But hey here is the pic have fun with this.

oh man that sucks

Thats a Sublimes Extra from the book. It doesn't suck.

 

[Tnt Cigarguy]

how do you know what stick that is?

Poor chap got bent over... It has happened to a lot of us. I had one of my assistant coaches come back from a cruise with a gift for me...a glass top box of Cohiba's. I waited until after the euphoria subsided to tell him he was duped.

 

[ama]

How do you know that? You from there? The guy just misunderstand the gift then?

Based on the the size and RG of the stick I'd say that is what it is. The Band looks spot on from what I can tell.

 

[Tnt Cigarguy]

Yeah he thought for sure it was a bhk.....just didn't have the heart to tell him. hopefully he really enjoyed what ever it was.

Looks like a Sig VI to me.

It looks like a rare special edition Behike with a Cohiba band. Like a mint error us coin.

Was he celebrating being runner up in the Newman lookalike contest?

My guess is if it was a sublimes extra you would be way more proud of that then a behike. They are 10 times more rare and at least twice as expensive.

I would be for sure, but I don't think that guy was the most savvy off smokers.

And this you can tell by a pic?

No, I can tell by the fact that he thought he had a BHK 56...

I agree not so savvy which also tends to lead away from ultra rare stick and back to fake. If he was savvy enough to land either cigar I would guess he would know which was which.

Apologies...I thought you were basing it off his pic.





...Which DOES look a lot like Newman!

True!

All I can tell from that pic is that the fellow is happy and has good taste in Coke products.

Good point.

Poor guy...Hate to see people "enjoying" fake Havanas.

Yes...Was that a Mexican coke bottle?

I agree with that. But, ultra rare sticks show up in the craziest of places, like even in my wasteland of a B&M in MN where people walk in with CGRs and Party 155s on occasion and have no idea what they are smoking.
