The Polo Ralph Lauren Factory Store in the "La Roca Village", about 30 minutes outside of…read moreBarcelona, is one of the few locations to purchase authentic Ralph Lauren clothing and accessories in Barcelona, aside from the small boutique within the El Corte Ingles Department store on Plaça Catalunya. Prices at the factory store, even within the clearance section of the store are higher than their counterpart stores in the USA.

Casa Fuster's selection of Habanos is heavily stacked with the popular marcas such as Cohiba, Montecristo and Romeo y Julieta but limited with the other marcas. One plus is that they have a better selection of the Espana RE's and the Edicion Limitadas than Gimeno most likely because they are not nearly as busy. It was interesting that there were a couple of fakes in the humidor but everything else was authentic Habanos SA product.. There were a handful of Cohiba Double Coronas from the 2003 Edicion Limitada series that were obvious fakes with their claro colored wrappers and crooked cut feet.

Part of a Tobacco retain chain, different location but same store down Ramblas part of same chain even tried to tell me they only had the 'originals' which was why they looked different. Bottom line. Fugasi.
