They still won't stop me from enjoying cigars !
I didn't realize that was the percentage, but when the tobacconist sells it he has to add on more money, so we end up paying atleast $20 for that stick
I also had a couple USA company's tell me they will not ship here due to "Tarrifs etc"
You just have to look around though, there are a few company's who have no problem sending packages up north
