Question
Hello:
When I was overseas sometime ago I had a Cuban cigar called guantanamera crystals very good one, I heard that the are not legal in the states, can someone tell me what kind of legal cigars will have the same taste that I can buy here.
Thanks
Ami
Ami,
I apologize for taking so long to answer you. I was on vacation and did not get your question until today. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the Guantanamera brand and can't suggest a substitute. You might ask Mr. James Yee, another expert on this site, who specializes in Cuban cigars. He will most likely be able to steer you in the right direction.
Thanks,
Bill

Expertise
I'm a fourth generation cigar maker and have spent 25+ years operating our factory as well as a mail order cigar company. I belong to cigar manufacturers associations as well as retail cigar associations so I'm usually up to date with current events relating to cigars. I've smoked the majority of brands on the market and would be happy to share my opinions of them with you. Since I live in the U.S. I have very little experience with Cuban cigars, but other than that I know a least a little bit about almost every brand of cigars on the market.
Experience
In addition to growing up in and now managing our cigar factory for 25+ years, I've spent time in many factories in Honduras, Nicaragua, The Dominican Republic and Mexico. BR>
