Although Cuban cigars are probably the most famous and highly sought-after cigars on the planet, there's a lot to recommend Jamaican cigars. Many of the best Jamaican cigars are grown from Cuban tobacco seeds, and it's said that the Jamaicans learned cigar-making from their Cuban neighbors. Plus, Jamaican cigars are grown in soil that's remarkably similar to Cuban soil and grown in a similar climate, making the flavor and consistency of quality Jamaican cigars very close to a fine Cuban. Plus, Jamaican cigars have one distinct advantage over even the very best, brand-name Cubans, it's legal to buy them and to bring them into the United States. So you can enjoy a top-quality Jamaican without guilt, because when you buy one, you're not supporting a Communist regime.
