I would not get too excited prematurely about normal USA relations with Cuba soon-there remains some powerful political USA interests who like it as it is, for a number of reasons. Count on these folks to flex their political muscles behind the scene-to neturalize or delay Obama's late regime, normalization, initiative.
Cigars:
I have smoked cigars for years, including Cubans at home and in many trips to Cuba since the 1980s.

IMO, Cuban cigars used to be the gold standard- but (IMO) they have gone seriously downhill, while others in the area have improved significantly. When cigars became popular with the masses a few years ago, with prices rising rapidly, I noticed the quality began to decline.

BTW, I enjoy visiting Cuba without the USA corporate influence, it makes it much more interesting. Hopefully, there is no "coca-colonizing" of Cuba on the horizon.

I find some cigars produced by former cubans in neighbouring Carribean countries now equal, or surperior to cubans. In fact, the last two times I travelled there, I brought my own cigars.
