jeez Steve...is everything a joke with you?

Anyway Vizio...I like to pronounce it ko-hi-bah...not because its correct, but because I love it when the guy at my B&M corrects every mispronunciation I make...you know "Pa-peen" Garcia, not "Pep-in" Garcia...man that guy drives me nuts...

OK, let me esplane myselves.

No matter how you pronounce Cohiba, it is a great cigar.

You guys are so sensitive. Like hanging out with a bunch of girls.

Do I HAVE to roll my R's on Bolivar-r-r? I want to seem like I know what I'm talking about, but that just feels weird.

Pretty cool site!

And it seems that "co e ba" is the winner, Vision.

LiLo, you're easily entertained.

But I have to admit that I tried it.

I say Co-HEE-bah, but I believe Co-EE-bah is the proper way.

For Ramon Allones, the double L makes a Y sound in Spanish, so that would be Ra-MONE ah-YONE-is. Remember Villazon, the company that owned Punch and Hoyo in the US before being bought by General? I always called it VILL (rhyming with fill)-ah-zon. It's really VEE-ah-zon.

Now more important, how do you pronounce Cigar Aficionado?
