Nice shop. The owner is knowledgeable and the stock has always been legitimate on my many visits there (most of those visits were at the old location, though...the newer shop is MUCH nicer). It's going to be expensive, though. Expect to pay about $20 or more for a Monte 2, for example. You'll probably pay roughly twice the cost of the cheaper legitimate online vendors. I always stop in and buy a handful of sticks when there, usually of some new releases or other cigars I have yet to try. But, I mostly bring and smoke my own while down there as the higher prices do add up.

I've shopped there at least a half dozen times over the past 8 or 10 years and have never received a fake there. Bought maybe 30 or 40 cigars total, so that's not a ton, but you can't get better than the 100% authenticity that I've experienced from this store. Avid, if I were you, I'd listen to the people who have actually personally shopped at the Cancun LCDH instead of listening to the ones who may have "heard" things about it...positive or negative.

Great place! The owner is David. He's very nice and will help you any way he can. I've documented several times on this and other threads of how he went out of his way to help me. He even volunteered to drive us back to the Moon Palace Resort...30 minutes away!!!
The prices are high, but Mexico has very high taxes. His stock is legit, as he is an LCDH owner. You will have a great time in his shop. I'll be back there next year! Can't wait!!!!!
