(off topic, but in the very best of taste & presents) Cuban cigars
.
Michael,
.
"Walk a mile for a Camel cigarette." was a 1950s slogan
that rings true for most items in life that has a wide seperation
between the very best examples, and those not good at all
except in appearance or name only.
.
The world's very best coffee in cost is x10 that available to me
using selected outlets that deliver a quality 95% of the very best
so that for 1/10 th the cost i'am too close to not notice the difference,
meaning for coffee and ice cream like Ben & Jerry's every person
can obtain 95% the very world's best for a price near 95% cheaper,
and using Edy's Dreamery as another ice cream great from what is
just a run of the mill average company.
.
But certain things like cigars require certain folks like me to every
once in a while spend that extra 95% to obtain the "last" 5% :o)
so yes, while i have not "Walked a mile for a Camel cigarette."
i have left the United States at times and obtained that last few
notches in possibilities with a cigar and watched that money
payed in extra "go up in smoke." :o)
.
I think it was loantech that mentioned other cigars as having what
it takes to satisfy, and he is very correct in that one can obtain
in a cigar not Cuban a smoke that is at times as good or better
since the mood of the person doing the puffs & puffings plays a big
part of the enjoymint obtained, and just so it one of those cigars that
is of the best, then a best smoke is done.
.
"... can supply genuine pre-embargo Cuban cigars."
.
Yes, but since many counterfeit cigars especially of Cuba
have been obtained in many nations like the US, it is best
that one "Walk a mile for a Camel cigarette." in that to do
the actual walk themselves rather than just accept a talk
from another as many honest people sometimes have not
the road map to determine real from a fake especially when
the fake is 95% as good as the real. Guess for me to know
that "I been there and done that." with Cuban cigars, its not
a "chase" i want to keep into since those other 95% as good
have not the availability problems Cuban's have and the chance
of getting not the real deal goes from a possible to near zero,
and for me as i spoke, my mood determines my cigar experience
far more than that last 5%.

(semi-off topic)
Maybe thats why E.C.'s WildCat Gold Mine remains 99.95% NOT
since its that "greater than zero" (or) "not zero" that E.C. will have
to accept that at least a 5% screw-job is "build-in" as a minimum
for anyone to join up and get the mine mine'ed :o)
.
Man, that last 5% can be a show-stopper for some folks.
