Everyone knows that Cuban cigarettes are the most coveted cigarettes, known worldwide for their smoothness and rich flavor. Indeed, Cuban tobacco is so highly regarded that many illegal traders have become known for selling fake Cubans to unsuspecting smokers. How do you know if what you have is fake or real? First, be sure to buy your cigarette from a reputable retailer. Buying from a local tobacco retailer or a reputable postal order business can save you money from getting a counterfeit box.
If you have a chance to buy a box of Cuban tobacco called but have your doubts, take the time to check the box before you buy it. Here are a few tips to help you see the lie in the real thing.
The most important thing you should check is the box. Real Cuban cigarettes will contain a green and white warranty symbol on the left side of the box. The seal will contain a sign with a picture of a shield and hat. In the top right corner of the box, you should find a white dial-up sticker with the word ‘Habaneros’ printed on it. The perfect look of the box should be clean and tidy. If the box appears damaged, sunken, broken, or marked, avoid it. If the color of the box is dim, do not buy it. Although cigarettes are real, they may hurt transport. If you are in the market for Chiba, Trinidad, or Q'Dorsey tobacco, know that all authentic Chiba will carry a green and white warranty on the right-hand side of the box.
At the bottom of the cigarette box, you should find a heat stamp marked ‘Habaneros.’ The heat stamp should be pressed under the box. Cuban counterfeit cigarette boxes often find other ways to print the label, such as using rubber stamps or paper labels. You should also get a factory code stamp below stamped with blue, blue, or black ink. This stamp will tell you when and where the cigarette was wrapped.
If you can open a box, take the time to smell the cigarettes. Cuban cigars will have a deep, rich, unmistakable scent on dedicated cigar aficionados. If the smell is off, or too weak, you may not have a box of real Cuban cigarettes in your hands. Cigars should face each other in the same way, and the top row may appear slightly flat. The caps on all the cigars should look the same, and each cigarette foot should be cut clean. Belts on all cigars should also be the same and should be arranged to face the same direction. If approved, check the cigars by pressing down them. Feel the entire length of each cigarette, looking for soft or firm areas. Cigars should feel strong but soft. Is the ashtray just an ashtray? Unlike regular cigarettes, cigarettes need a special place to support their girth and ashes. Many cigar aficionados swear by the joy of finding a suitable place to hold their cigarettes and ashes.
So what are the features of a good ashtray? First, make sure that the ashtray you purchase is large enough to hold your cigarette. Cigarettes come in a variety of sizes, so you'll need an ashtray that can hold one of your choices. Next, consider your smoking style. Do you produce a lot of ash? Do you allow your cigarettes to rest for a long time? All of these considerations are important when choosing your ashtray.
Look for ashtrays made of metal, heavy glass, or pottery. Ideally, you will want the ashtray large enough to hold the ash of two scissors.
Where can you find the best ashtrays for your cigarette? Many cigars aficionados swear by the ancient ashtrays. Search the flea markets and antique shops for the best deals. Tobacco stores, mail order lists, and Internet stores are also good places to look
