Cuban cigar are the best of the best...

As far as I know, many Cuban cigar factory has moved (or opened another factory) to Dominican Republic or Honduras so I don't know if we can still call these "cuban" ?

No. Their brands were stolen, and moved to DR, H, or Nic. They have absolutely no correlation with the Cuban brands except the name.

Glad we resurrected this guy's intro post after we all missed it 2 months ago.

Well, I never claimed to be a Cuban cigar expert, but my point was a Cuban Cohiba and a Dominican Cohiba have nothing to do with each other except they bear the same name.

Personally, I'm much more interested in this new "Non-Cuban Cuban (or NCC)" cigar production.

Myself as well, I procure the occasional box of CC’s, but the aging requirements along with the construction and draw issues are more trouble than they are worth IMHO.
CC’s are probably 5% of my stash.
