That is 41% of the cigars listed are from the Dominican Republic.
Hola DW.

When Cuban cigars are a legal reference in this Country, it is dificult compare cigars made with Cuban seed leaf harvested abroad or Cuban cloned seed leaf with Premium cigars rolled with the very best leaf of Vuelta Abajo Region: Pinar del Rio, San Juan y Martinez and San Luis Vegas.

At this point is important to say that the average price for a Dominican Davidoff is surprisingly higher than Premium Habanos cigars in Spain. (Fuente cigars and many others are not available here).

By the way, Davidoff left Cuba in the 80's and now, as his Development Manager statements, they're interested in go back to the Island. Seems something wrong is happening with this cigar division of a company which seems interested much more, after Mr. Zino Davidoff death, in non smoker related product lines.
