    Default Cigars

    I was reading a back copy of Cigar Magazine and came across something I found disturbing. The loophole that used to allow people to bring a few Cuban cigars in the country has been closed, but they also added that any US citizen who buys Cuban products in another country for personal use, even if they don't try to bring them into the US, is subject to prosecution for up to a year in jail and a $250,000 fine. I guess if I visit another country I better have a local by my cigars for me.LOL

    I second that on the Cohiba. The Merlot sounds goo too but I think a little scotch or some conyac would work too.

    I'm thinking, we're coming rapidly up on the golden anniversary of the Cuban embargo ..... everyone of the players except Castro is dead .... so what's the point? This is hardly a good example to set for peace in the world.

    I agree. I think they're waiting for Castro to die. They're still pissed because he went commie and cost the corporations a bunch when he nationalized everything.

    Lynn,

    The Gol size is one of my favorites. Nice smooth smoke and always draws well with a great finish. Give it a try.

    A couple of my other favorites are the Rocky Patron vintage 1990 and the Onyx reserve. I tend to like the robusto size cigar.

    Check out Thompson Cigar online. They have some good prices and good service. I bought a small humidor as box prices significantly lower the price of the individual cigars, once you identify what you like.

    Give the Brazillia's a try, I think you will really like them.

    Curt

    I ended up buying a box of Robusto size Brazillia's from Mike's tobacco in Miami. Oh Yeah!!!! Very full bodied and a super smoke. Just a super nice cigar. I'll be buying another box soon. Lynn
