Obama Lifts Restrictions on Cuban Cigars, Rum

It has happened, folks. Stock up now, because it may be a while before Cubans are the same again. Although our mail ordering is still outlawed.

I believe the loosening so far is for people returning from trips to Cuba

Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Production has been at max capacity for quite a while. Look for prices to rise significantly. The law of supply and demand is absolute.

well maybe BBC was right, this from CBS

Correction: An earlier version of this story said that the new changes would allow Americans to bring the Cuban-made cigars and liquor back to the U.S. from Europe, but that's not the case. Americans would only be able to legally buy and consume those products in those countries.
