If it does, think of all the great deals you'll be able to score on Tatuajes.

Be careful what you wish for…

As an aside. Within 10 years, expect all tobacco to cost at least 50-100% more than it is now with huge restrictions on where one can smoke.
Stop being a Buzzkill, Moses.

They already do. JR's (Altadis) will distribute over 80% of the Cuban cigars in the US. That deal was done about 4-5 years ago.

In midst of all the talk about prices going up and quality going down. If this does happen, do you think they will bring back some of the discontinued brands to keep up with demand? Also, think of the very wealthy companies that own farms and would love to buy farms in Cuba and start making their own lines in those countries. While it may be that the traditional brands may go up in cost, it would only take a handful of NC companies to start providing cuban wrapper, filler, etc to drive that cost back down.

So I guess that means that Pete Johnson could start a Havana Club. Nyuk nyuk nyuk...
