It’s the Cubans Embargo’s fault

It’s the Cubans Embargo’s fault

by Trevor Wallace

Ask any cigar smoker on this planet and they will let you know that no cigar in this world comes close to a Cuban cigar. One of the most popular cigars in the world are the Cohiba and the Montecristo brand. Featured in many movies and other popular things, I think it’s safe to say that Cuban cigars are a popular high class item. If you happen to reside in the USA, well than you got something else on your hands - the trade embargo to be exact. The only way you can get Cuban cigars in the USA is by smuggling them. A safer but convenient way is through the internet.

Cuban cigars are 100% forbidden in the United States of America. It is with great sadness that I must report that this ban is not limited to Cuban stogies but everything that is made in Cuba. Permission to trade between these two countries can do so much good but I guess politics are politics. If you really want, you can purchase pre-embargo Cuban cigars but good luck finding them. They either are all ’smoked out’ or they are going for literally thousands of dollars a stick.

However, their are two solutions to this problem. The first one is travel to a country such as Canada and smoke them their. Canada is a place which is the closest to the United States in many ways and Cuban cigar distribution is regulated by the Cuban government. Plus their are other countries but Canada is the most preferred one. You can go to Mexico for Cuban cigars too but down their it is a much bigger risk on your part regarding the authenticity of your Cuban cigars. The second thing you can do is purchase from an online retailer.

Since all online retailers reside in places outside of the USA, they can ship you the Cuban cigars. Just make sure you are dealing with a certified website retailer. Beware of the fake Cuban cigar dealers as ninety percent of them are selling fake Cuban cigars. They take cheap cigars and disguise them as Cubans simply by replacing the band on them.

A lot of these online retailers sell fake cigars. They buy Mexican cigars or the same style and shape and than simple replace the cigar bands on them. It’s unbelievable but they’ve been doing it for years. Where do they get these authentic Cuban cigar bands? They get them from online auction sites. It’s very easy to do so make sure you always deal with authorized dealers. Every certified distributor has a phone number so give me them a call and see for yourself. If you prefer traveling, than stay away from gas stations selling Cuban cigars, they have no idea what they are selling and what they do have are fake Cuban cigars. Proper common sense and good buying habits will lead you to your goal of smoking real Cuban cigars.
