Here's a little description and pics of what I bought and a few pics of the LCDH in Cayo Santa Maria. I bought cigars at that LCDH, from my hotel's humidor and at the airport duty free. The majority of my cigars come from the LCDH.
This is the LCDH in the Pueblo La Estrella, within the Barcelo hotel complex :
I also bought cigarettes, even though I don't smoke them ... but I tried without inhaling and those were the best cigarettes I've ever tasted ! Even if I'm no expert on these, they tasted like a mild-medium cigar and I think will be good to have on hand when smokers come to the house and I want to join them without spending 30 minutes outside after everyone else has gone inside ... The Cohiba's were 1.80 CUC and the rest either 0.60 or 0.75 CUC ! Pretty cheap !
So finally, here's the CIGAR PORN :
Cigar beetle hole in a MAG 46 ... thankfully, it was a tubo, so the rest are ok ! |

I picked this sampler box up at the airport and it was 39.00 CUC. I thought it was a good price for something like that. I also bought the VR Famosos for 135 CUC at the same time and two 1 liter bottles of Havana Club 7 years for 15.90 CUC each.
I don't think I'll be buying anything more for a while ...
