[quote=GRIZ326 ,30719]Technically speaking, a US citizen cannot legally smoke a Cuban anywhere in the world - ANYWHERE! ...much less bring them back into the country! The exception would be if you are a diplomat. All of the Cuban cigars I saw in China were counterfeits, however, I did not seek out fine tobacco shops...only ordinary tobacco shops...so I am certain you can find authentic Cuban cigars. Do you have the knowledge to identify them? I am a long time cigar smoker and cigar collector; only rarely can I identify a Cuban cigar by smelling it, I rely on triple-cap standards, quality of the band, and the box codes. If you do not know what that means - you are certain to buy counterfeits! Expect to pay $20 USD/160 RMB minimum for a premium, Cuban cigar. If you pay any less, authenticity is in question. That said, Chinese tobacco and blending is quite good...so you might enjoy the counterfeits.BTW - Why are you smoking cigars at 18? I cannot imagine that you have earned enough that you can truly afford them. Are you planning on smuggling?[/quote]
