Cuban brands that are made in Dominican republic, much difference?

[FireFighter 227]

Is there much difference between these? Same brand, different location, such as the Romeo y Julieta's, St. Luis Rey, and some of the other brands that are generally thought as "Cuban's". For those of you who have had both, did you notice any significant difference?

On some, the term night and day comes to mind IMHO.

They are exactly the same. Don't be fooled.

I think the turbo 335i BMW drives the same as a 93 civic right? But in all seriousness, yes there is a world of difference.

So if Phillies were renamed Cohibas (Im sure it's been done before, lol) you'd enjoy them the same? Doubtful, though some are fooled.

Different cigars, made in different parts of the world, with tobacco grown from different parts of the world. I'd say, there's a world of difference.

It is like saying, "I got laid in Hawaii," and "I got leid in Hawaii." They sound the same, but...

 

[sinnyc]

Yes.

 

[sonuvabum]

You guys showed amazing restraint here.

Milk from a cow, from a goat, from a coconut, from a breast, soy milk, MILF? They all taste the same right. OOPs

They're not going to taste the same, but it's up to your tastes as to which one is better... or any good at all.
