The ones you see in the US are made from tobacco NOT from Cuba, but anywhere else, really.
There are many that prefer the taste of Cuban grown tobacco to tabacco grown elsewhere. Just like the same grape variety may make a different tasting wine if grown in France compared to Napa valley.
I'm not saying Cuban made cigars are "better", but they do have a different characteristic to them that is uniquely their own.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info.
