From the humidor

For those of you who enjoy the occasional habano (and let's face it, who doesn't?), here is an interesting read on cigars and cigar smoking in Cuba today - from a foreigner's perspective, of course, where big-brand smokes are always relatively cheap and plentiful.

Still, how can you fault a journalist who writes lines such as, "Nothing is more Cuban than cigars ..."?

And yes, the illustration above is from before 1959.
