I dont want to get anyone in trouble, I can be reached privately via email.
As for the little guy that steals the cigars, I have heard that he is really busy rolling banana leaves into cigar shape and selling them. The guy that I met down there bought the street cigars on his last trip and got ripped. I got mine from a government store and have the official paper to prove it. I was told that if you didnt have the paper, they would not let the cigars out of the country. They have to keep up their reputation for quality or the whole economy cold be ruined.
