Interesting! Probably a long shot.

I don't know. For some reason, I think that he may be able to do it.


It would be awesome if he could. But remember when we were discussing this long ago what we figured the results would be? High prices. Even higher demand for because of those who have never tried them before figuring why not now. And the inevitable lower quality due to the increased demand.

Interesting, but agree that it most likely be expensive. Would be very interesting if there was some experimentation with blending with non-cuban tobacco.

The comment at the bottom of the article is spot on also.


Not many outside of Cuba really care, and their stupidity is expected. So they are living up to their expectations.


Just sad.
