Obama signed a law in 2016 that allows you to bring in a certain amount $100 declared, so no longer the fine. You can get Cuban rum as well. We previously would just take the bands off prior to getting on the boat and stated they were Dominican cigars. Easy way to get buy that.
Fakes are easy if the don't have a hologram on the box they are fake. Also, most if all Cuban cigar bands have a raised embossed cigar band. Lastly, is they come in a 5 pack for $20-50 they are fake. Cuban don't sell in 5 packs.
yes, I can go to the ports tab on here, just thought I would ask here. I also would smoke in the port with a local beer or drink prior to getting on the boat.
