I, Wilbur Hubbard, can shed some light of this question. The Good Captain
Neal is presently engaged in Cuba on revitalizing a couple of cigar tobacco
plantations and getting a premium brand cigar factory up and running. With
the ever-increasing popularity of cigar smoking in the U.S. and Canada these
days it is a guaranteed money maker.


Not with the present embargo. Besides, most states are passing
non-smoking laws.

Sounds like a losing enterprise.




I'm Horvath and I approve of this post.

That goes to show how little you know about it. The demand for fine Cuban
cigars has skyrocketed in the past two or three years and there's no end in
sight. Even though it is technically illegal to import them into the U.S.A.
that doesn't keep them out and only serves to make them more expensive and
the profit even greater. The U.S. market, in spite of the federales best
efforts, is a gold mine. Aficionados are willing to pay 20, 30, 50 dollars a
stick for a quality Cuban cigar.

You've got to hand it to Capt. Neal. He's always been on the cutting edge.
Anything he does he does big and he does it right and he does it well.

What a bunch of crap. Aficionados, such as Rush Limbaugh, and myself,
enjoy Nicaraguan cigars. We both smoke Macanudos. I've been to
Canada, and bought Cuban cigars. They're crap. Nobody would pay
fiddy cents for one.

You and Rush are idiots then because Macanudos come from the Dominican
Republic. You obviously don't know a fine cigar if you see one. The General
Cigar Co. Macanudo combines a Connecticut shade wrapper, Dominican fillers,
and a unique binder grown in the San Andres Valley of Mexico. If you're
going to claim to smoke a certain cigar the least you can do is know
something about it.

Macanudo Café
Only the makers of Macanudo spend the time and effort it takes to
grow, cure and age their own Connecticut Shade wrappers. And only the
makers of Macanudo age all of their tobaccos twice, just as it used to
be done in Havana during the golden age of Cuban cigars. Now crafted
exclusively in the Dominican Republic, every Macanudo Café cigar is
made with the finest Connecticut Shade wrapper, a flavorful blend of
Dominican tobaccos and a select binder grown in the rich St. Andrés
Tuxtla Valley of Mexico. And to assure you of the same smoothness in
cigar after cigar, the makers of Macanudo use only the most thoroughly
aged tobaccos.





Apparently you are correct, about certain brands of Macanudos.
I bow to your knowledge of cigars. But, as now you can buy cigars
online, you still have a losing enterprise. And Macanudos are still
superior to any Cuban cigars.
