From
JR Cigars:
The Genuine Counterfeit Cuban Cigar is a blend of potent
Esteli, Nicaraguan Ligero and Viso from the Perez Plantation,
mixed with a base of Cuban-seed Seco. Bound with an Ecuadorian
binder and rich, silky rosado Ecudorian Sumatran wrapper,
this cuadrado-pressed cigar offers the smoker a velvety-soft
smoking experience with a distinct spicy bite.

Notes:
This box pressed cigar was
fun to smoke. It had huge billows
of smoke and lasted for 3+ hours!
The taste was rather mild with
hints of leather and dirt. The
construction was firm with an
easy (but not too easy) draw.
The burn was consistent throughout
and had a thick firm ash. This
will become the house cigar,
replacing Macanudo Robust.

Notes:
The more I smoke 'em the more I love Nicaraguan cigars.
When I first started smoking cigars, the Nic's were the
poor bastard children of the cigar world. Over the years,
I think they have come into their own. Rivaling the big
names from Honduras the DR and even Cuba.
The Genuine Counterfeit Cuban is a fun cigar. When you
smoke these you know your smoking a cigar. There's no
pussy footing around here. First of all the construction
is perfect. The easy draw gives up volumes of rich thick
smoke. The flavor is strong and all tobacco. They've got
a hint of cinnamon I think but not being gay I can't say
for sure. All I know is this is a kick ass smoke. The
box pressing makes that much cooler.
