Yeah it's a Gran Habano Corojo #5 Maduro. I just thought it was interesting how they made it look so much like a CC Partagas band complete with the LE secondary band.

Also the gold and black band remind me of tatuaje cojonu bands.

Which was inspired by the Habano EL band(which has been used since 2000-2001 ish) :)

The Siglo Reserve cigars that have been floating around are a blatant knock off of a cc marca, and there's another NC out there using a shield design on their bands that is damn near identical to a Ramon Allones band, too. I don't mind a bit of traditional design to give a cubanesque feel, but I hate seeing obvious rip off's.

I'm sure we can find at least 20 more, nothing new.

Also, there are countless NC bands that borrow heavily from other NC bands, so it's not just a "fake cuban" type of thing.

Probably a lot more than 20, I think you may be missing a 0 in there.

There's also the one Habano that is a blatant rip off of a NC blatant rip off brand, Montecristo's new band. LOL
