Cuban Cigars

Cuban cigars are the most popular among everyday people. It is common knowledge that Cuban cigars are the “best”, and that people pay top dollar for them. It’s also known that they are illegal in the US, but many people don’t know why Cuban cigars are illegal in the USA. It’s kind of wild to think that they can be purchased with ease in many other countries, yet almost impossible to buy here in the United States.
