The label on real Cohibas is the same as the yellow lable DR's except for saying Habana Cuba on the label.

These dominican faux-hibas go for $30 a bundle around here. Horrible cigar with no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

1.99 each around here, and still way over priced in my honest opinion.

I agree - a rookie mistake of mine to buy it. I should have found this place a long time ago!

Thanks for all your input and feedback everyone. I learned a lot about Cohibas that I wasn't expecting to.

Re: Yellow Band Cohiba - Dominican Republic
Went into a cigar shop in Orange and found yellow banded "Cohiba" cigars with gold lettering.. and they had the nerve to call them Siglo VI and Esplendido!!

They had the writing "Republican Dominicana" in cursive, like true Habanos say "La Habana, Cuba"

AND they sold them for about $14 a stick! Pisses me off!!

I'm confused as to what I just smoked. I was wondering if any of you FOG's might be able to help this newbie.....

Thanks!
My friend is a police officer and that exact cigar with that band is what he smokes. I have even smoked a few with him. They are alright.
