If you are looking for a mild, well constructed cigar that others have mentioned as cuban-esqe, My Father Connecticut.

Same company with a very good medium strength and bodied, My Father Flor de Las Antillas. Usually between $150-$180 a box. Sometimes difficult to find due to backorders.

Kinda narrows the choices. You are most likely stuck with DR stuff. Fuente has some good ones.

Robert, have tried the LFD Cameroon Cabinet? Happen to be smoking a #3 right now and think you'd probably enjoy these.

You are killing me.

Juzt finished scouring a well-known asian site and he is barren of any affordable or even inflated priced cigars, except for aged and cigars in the 4-5" by 30-41.

I happen to like skinnier cigars a lot, particularly pc, but he really had none.

I never should have sold-off my 80+ box collection, without reserving 3-4 boxes, even though I hadn't been smoking for over a year. PM your phone number and I will text you a picture.


Hahahahahahaha!

I kinda, sorta refrain from smoking too many that I acquired from you to avoid Seller’s Remorse on your part Crying (…but you seem to be doing a good job of doing that anyway… Laugh …).

I coulda sworn you sent me pics a few years ago but I’ll e-mail you my info.

They are! As they say, “If I knew then what I know now…” d'oh!

More than 4-1/2 times the cost for “regular” stock than the 2010 EL purchased in 2015. Gonz

Party short from lee.

Not strong cigar. Underrated smoke in my opinion is the la duena from my father. Completely different than all the other more stout my father cigars. I love those.

I did a quick Google search too and came up with 8 places that sold cigars. Dunno if every one of them sells Cubans but if it were me, to make sure I was getting authentic Cubans, I would ONLY buy from La Casa Del Habano Aruba. Of course ymmv and the other shops may be legit but unless you can tell the difference between a fake and a real one, I wouldn't chance it. Not talking

Yes. LCDH is small, but nice. There is a shop called Cigar Emporium in the fancy shopping center with the Ralph Lauren Polo store that is attached to the downtown hotel and is is owned by the same owner as LCDH- and is also equally legit. Better service and about 5% cheaper.

Benlo, across from the Hyatt, is a tiny shop good for one or two inexpensive Cuban cigars the first day/night you get there if you cant get into town to LCDH or CE. Benlo just re-sells what it gets from LCDH at slightly higher prices. Look in the newspaper for a free cigar coupon.

There is a tourist shop with a walk-in humidor near the LCDH, but DO NOT buy anything there!

Must be your first time there. Been there for a total of over 50 nights. Know all the restaurants and things to do. Where are you staying and what do you plan to do while there?

My portfolio is up about 20% so far this year but from the looks of Cuban prices I should have put the whole thing in Habanos instead. d'oh!

Go to your local shpo and ask for the stash under the counter. This is where the local shpos around here keep the Cuban ceegars. Think
