I should note that studies have shown many of the Cuban cigars purchased outside of Cuba are not genuine.
Even if they are genuine Cubans, they are not worth the effort. The best cigars in the world did come from Cuba before Castro and his henchmen seized all private real property. The best cigar people they had left the country and are now in the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Honduras, and so on.

I was given a Cuban cigar in Nassau once, and it was no better than a 2-3 dollar everyday cigar you can get at any cigar shop.
