Mexican Dog Rockets

[MarkD60]

At my favorite cigar shop, there's a bartender from the Phillipines. I was talking to him one evening about making cigars there and getting them on the market. He says that although they grow tobacco and smoke it, it isn't that good, because of the soil.
I'm sure there's some good Mexican cigars, but that bartender and I figured out that the best tobacco comes from the Caribbean, a little comes from the USA east coast and Africa, but mostly from the Caribbean.
I'd smoke a Mexican cigar if I came across one.

What about Central and South America? I understand that probably the very best tobacco comes from a certain place in the carribean.......but beyond that, Nicaragua-Honduras-Ecuador....all produce some damn good leaf.

Edited to add: Damn, this is an old thread.
