Most folks who think they've had a Cuban should rest easy, they probably didn't. From what I understand, even most of the cigars IN CUBA are fakes. I'd be scared to try and buy one personally. If you have had a real Cuban, don't feel too bad. The president that enacted the embargo to begin with stockpiled the cigars before enacting it. Talk about inside information! Our embargo on Cuban cigars isn't hurting Cuba one bit either. If we don't buy them, someone else will. All we did was help keep prices down a little bit, maybe. As a matter of fact, most of the cigar smoking world dreads the day the embargo ends. Demand will skyrocket along with prices, and quality will probably go down as a consequence. I can only imagine the number of counterfeits that will circulate as a result.
