First of all, does anyone know where tobacco smoking originated?
Most people "THINK" that it originated in cuba but nobody really knows where and when tobacco was first planted, we're sure the first people to cultivate and smoke tobacco were the American Indians (IT DOES NOT SAY NORTH AMERICAN IDIANS AND AMERICA IS VERY BIG). According to history, tobacco was first discovered on the island of Cuba when Christopher Columbus first arrived in 1492. Puerto Rico tobacco corp. was established in 1503!
The fact is that the native indians in the Caribbean use to do a lot of trading among themselves. This is why history CAN'T say that it originated in Cuba. Because there is no proof.
What we do know is that the seed that seeded Cuba also seeded the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico (because native indians traded this product).
The other thing is that if you know about growing tobacco on the caribean you would know about pest and all the crops that are destroyed due to them. What this means is that most of this tobacco have tons of pesticides and/or chemicals. Witch Puerto Ricans DON'T have. Don’t take my word for it. Come down to Puerto Rico and take a tour of the tobacco plantations.
P.S. They don’t distribute in the US because they only produce about 2 million cigars a year (not a lot). Why? Because they are truly HAND ROLLED! And if they start sending free sample then they would have to give free samples to whoever asks for them. Don't you think?
The last think (for now) DON'T TAKE ANYONES WORD. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!
Don’t be afraid to call them and ask all the questions that you may have! They have great customer service, and GREAT SMOKES.
Any questions about them pm me!
