cuban cigars are made in cuba
dominican cigars in the D.R.
nicaraguan cigars in nicaragua
honduran cigars in honduras...........

the tobacco may come from the country of origin or from one of the other countries....except the tobacco from cuba is used for cuban cigars....

most every tobacco being grown in countries that produce cigars is from cuban seed....seeds from tobacco that was grown in cuba.....it gets confusing...try search...

A lot of fake Cuban cigars... There's probably only about three real ones on the Island - and I think I'm being generous in saying that. Not to mention the fact that they'll take your shirt and pants when you buy them...

BTW - watch for the glass top presentation cases. Those are the best they got!!!

I buy all my Cohibas in the glass top cases. They are so expensive I really want to see The cigars before I buy. The glass tops allow me to examine the cigars without breaking the seal on the box. That way I can see if they have beetles or other nasty imperfections.

I have really come out ahead by using this method.
