By all means, strange things come out of cuba! It's kind of thin. The serial number IP whatever is pretty normal for this time of year, iirc XY is the correct number for a box inspected by Habanos. i.e. the box has the serial number IP670775, Habanos opens it for a little check up. When done...

Or you can take a day to get a license like the 160 thousand people that went in 2003 according to the government.

As I understand the question, you received a box (what serial number?) that had the tax seal cut and the habanos stickers as well, i.e. someone had opened it and just closed the box back up. When you asked your vendor the vendor said: "They do this in Cuba for QC." The way I read that statement...

The arrive mainly on rafts, mitigating the stress on the airport. Nobody knows obviously, lots of speculation, I found a really good google answer on the subject. Sucks that they cancelled that service: http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=343739 Summary for the lazy: 2 Million...

I use a larger one, I'm not sure who makes it as I got it as a gift, this is it though: http://www.cigarextras.com/index.asp?PageA...amp;ProdID=2184 Almost all of these types (probably including yours) come with a little round humidity puck and then are foam lined everywhere else. I put a...

Sorry for the delays, I've been enjoying my Christmas vacation in Tahoe and have just returned yesterday. First off, merry christmas! Not sure why some of you guys are so hostile. There are some basic laws regarding travel to Cuba, which (as I understand it) come from the Trading with the...

I'll say whatever I feel like saying, I'm not an attorney, i'm not citing any legal codes. Anything anyone says is their opinion, I didn't flame anyone and simply urged everyone to find a licensable and official reason to go. We're in a forum dedicated to smoking Cuban cigars, figure out where...

There are many perfectly legitimate reasons to go to Cuba under the many provisions of general and specific licenses, I urge everyone to find whichever one fits you and pursue the appropriate channels. If you cannot find any reason to visit Cuba that fits within those licenses, then: It is...

Very true, I'm not sure where the urban myth started on these kinds of boards that it was "illegal" to go to cuba. Maybe people trying to keep others from going? ??? It's very legal to go to Cuba, you cannot spend money there without a general license or a specific license. OFAC hints...

Exactly my point, take a look through that and look for the word "illegal" you'll find it next to several notes about not pissing off the cuban government by illegally exporting their escapee's. Main travel page for the US government and not one mention of being illegal.... maybe 'cause it's...

Please cite your source on the statement that it is illegal for Americans to go to Cuba

what's the box code? I wouldn't mind picking a box up from that code

The source is the easiest way to tell, if the guy bought it online he'd have a receipt in email or could at least casually name the source. They look good although I don't know about the Limitada insert. Sometimes people need to sell things quickle because it's say, Christmas?

Classic! Anyway, fly into Cancun and take a vacation there for a week, then take one of those little crappy planes over to Cuba, they don't take credit cards or often stamp passports anyway, and you are allowed to go as long as the English chick you hooked up with in Cancun pays for everything...

I noticed you are in Atlanta, a quick weather.com check indicates it's often around 50-55 degree highs right now. What's the day-round temperature in your humidor? Is it stable? R/H comes from dew point which comes from temperature. Are your hygro's accurate, someone else mentioned salt test I...

I was in a LCDH this weekend and checked out their monty sublimes, they were 6's compared to the 10's I have in my humidor. I bought 2 boxes of trinidad ingenios from my usual overseas spot, first box was dog rockets, sent it back, second box was mediocre with hard draw. Got 2 boxes of Cuaba...
