I don’t like the term. It will fool a lot of naive people, and possibly turn them off of a cigar that they may fall in love with, because of bad marketing.

From what I understand Cubans are the way they are because of the Climate, and growing conditions they have. I would say that it would be different in other countries even with the soil additives. Also my thought on Cuban Seeds, it is my understanding which could be wrong, but the seeds were originally taken from Cuba when the cigar makes fled from Cuba. Wouldn’t all the seeds other than the first setting be from the country they are grown in? Again this is just my thoughts, and they could very well be incorrect.

I've been on a site about growing tobacco (think it's called coffin nails) and I think you may very well be right, the different generations of seeds produce different smokes even though they are from the same genetic line.
I aint no expert either mind!
