25 Count Espana Behike Box

[drewyehboi]

I'm new to the forums, and besides giving my intro, I can think of no better way than to start my first thread by saying thank you. I have used this website and its forums as a resource for a long time and I appreciate the wealth of information you share with eachother.

A buddy of mine sent me this picture. I'd never heard of Behike's coming in a 25 count box. His response was that the demand for these cigars in Spain and the Middle East had gone up so they've begun putting them in larger boxes. I've only ever known them to come in 10 count boxes similar to the one below.

He gave me one to smoke, I did, and it was really good.

So, my question is: Have any of you heard of this just starting to happen? Does he have reason to be suspect? I've noticed by reading the forums that dissecting can sometimes help, if he gives me another one I will try and remember to do some cutting. Is this the kind of material that makes for good talking points?

They are in order of appearance fake, real, fake and fake.  BHKs do not come in 25ct boxes.  i suggest your check out Trevor's webiste:   www.cubancigarwebsite.com.

Add me to the list of idiots.  Who would suspect that a guy selling boxes of Behike's on the Strip in LV would not have the real deal?  OTOH, the cigars are smokablem, and probably ok at 1/3 the price I paid.
