i agree with what you say cattledog who wants to spend $275 for a $75 box

ok. I got ahold of a montecristo #3 cuban and bought a d.r. #3.. I smoked them back to back. D.R. first and then the cuban. Well, I just didn't notice a $6 difference. Actually, I didn't notice a difference at all, really. Oh well. I'll stick with the one's I have. I'm at about 500 now... Peace. T

it is a matter of personal taste. cubans are the most sought after cigars in the world. so there must be something to it

Yah there is a reason. They are illegal. If they were made legal, I'm sure there would be a rush to purchase them and then after people find out that they aren't all that, the reg cigars will prosper from it. But, that's my opinion on the subject. Other people swear by cubans. It is, as you said a matter of personal preference..... Peace. T....

It truely is the legality issue. if it wern't for the cigars being illegal in the United States people would view them the same as any other cigar. Being a frequent international traveler i have the oppertunity to sample many different cigars from around the world and in my opinion the cuban cigars are equivilant to a good padron 1926 or a rockey pattel vintage 1990.
