I only smoke a cigar 2-3x a year and those are in the $25-30 range (cubans are way more) so what the hell do I know.

Most of the Cuban cigars sold in Cuba by street vendors and small shops are imports from DR or other nearby islands. You have to go into one of the official government places to get the real stuff. At least in Habana this is the case.
