No, I'm not trying to get a hold of Cubans. I'm currently deployed to NAVY Customs in Kuwait where 90% of the troops returning home come through us. We are constantly taking "Cuban" cigars from soldiers as they are illegal. I've come to realize that we may be taking a fair number of cigars that are Cuban Seed cigars (terminology on the labels can "sound" like their from Cuba) or brands that are made in Cuba as well as other countries, Ex: Romeo Y Juliets. My question is, are there any selective terms to look for on the labels of cigars distinguishing a Cuban from a non-Cuban, or even cigar appearance? Ex: Habana (Cuban Seed) vs. Habano (Cuban). Or is it just a matter of knowing the brands?
-This may read as a confusing question and may be somewhat difficult to answer, any help is appreciated. I know I would be mad if some uneducated customs agent took my cigars which I knew to be perfectly legal.
