OK, I know this has been brought up many times before, but I'll tack one more onto the list. I'm going to Jamaica next month, Montego Bay. When I was there a couple of years ago, I visited a small shop selling "Cuban Cigars". I bought 2 packs of 3 or 5, it's been a while and I can't remember, of Cohiba Siglo VI and some Monte #2. I'm not sure if these were legitimate or not, any way to tell? The boxes were sealed, for whatever that is worth. Should I look at these again or just bring my own? I'm leaning toward just bringing my own.

Bring your own. We are traveling to Runaway Bay the end of the month, and I plan to bring my own. The prices in Jamaica were too high, last time I visited. I would hate to worry about if they were real or not when they were priced so high.

BRING YOUR OWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was there in Montego Bay last week. I can not tell you how many people came up to me and asked where I got my cigars. I brought a box with me and was so glad I did. They sold a few cubans in the store on the resort but way over priced and not sure if they were legit. Bring your own cigars you will be glad you did when you get there.
Cigar world stores in Jamaica, does any one know the reputation of these stores. Every where I've read there suppose to sell the real deal. Is this true. Price is no option as I have none of my own to take with me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
