Does anyone have a definitive answer on whether or not the possession of CCs is illegal? For example if they were gifted by a non-US citizen. I'd really be curious to know. If the answer is yes, it seems that a lot of people use little discretion on the boards about their own consumption of them.
For an American citizen, Yes. Unless they are Pre-Embargo Cubans, then I don't know positively. It is illegal for an American citizen to smoke a Cuban cigar ANYWHERE I believe, but I could be way off base. As far as travel goes for Americans going to Cuba. I also believe there has to be a VERY good explanation as to why you are going there in order to get approval to travel there. Again I am just going what I have read and heard discussed here before, and all this only applies to Americans.

This link breaks it down better than I can. http://www.ustreas.gov/offices/enfor...uba/cuba.shtml

Sorry for the threadjack
