  1. I know a high government official who is a Cuban exile. For those with connections, the best Cuban cigars are not a problem. He says the real problem is getting the good stuff in Cuba. The demand far outstrips supply.

  2. For great assortment of Cuban Cigar shirts and caps go to wwwcubanfotoscom

  3. I’d love to go back in time and have a cuban with John & Robert. Ted could stay at home.

  8. Kennedy never had enough time to enjoy those cigars. 1200 cigars is not a lot.

  9. id take a president who smokes cuban cigars over one who goes to wars unjustly and one who hands over trillions of dollars to banks any day

  10. LOL

  11. in what sense was he a terrible cigar smoker? just wondering. most people glamorize his habit

  12. love the cigar smoker, the man was very sexy smoking cigar

  13. Yep, typical Kennedy, the law doesn’t apply to them.

  14. absolutely brilliant stories

    love them!

  15. Salinger spent much of his subsequent career and life in Paris, so he ultimately got to keep on enjoying his Havana habit.

  16. According to another story from CA magazine (by one of JFK’s staffers, who supposedly wrote the embargo order for him), after the embargo Kennedy had an ongoing supply of Cuban cigars brought to him through the British ambassador. He also claimed a similar story about a “gift” of diplomatic cigars, this time from Che Guevara while at a conference in Rio. (JFK supposedly kept these.)

    I got to try a Petit Upmann over the summer…wasn’t very impressed, it was a very lightweight cigar.

  17. so that’s why they assasinated him, so they could get thier hands on his cubans! :p

  18. O HaHa… JFK is stocked up with Cubans while the rest of us have to suffer. these guys are such pricks!!

  19. Winston Churchill was a active but terrible cigarsmoker.

  20. Brilliant video I love stories like this and i love cigars, although i nearly shed a tear when i found out naievly,Salinger is dead ( Im british ) i also found out today george carlin is dead also ( a very sad day )

  21. Too bad we don’t still have a few sharp deal-makers like this in Washington anymore. Unfortunately, it takes “sharks” like this to cut real deals for goods… like OIL! But with the press magnifying every word (from US diplomats) they can’t make the deals they used to, the deals (both right & wrong)that made the USA the #1 world economy for so many years. If the oil producers want to keep raising prices… we should do the same with our military providing their protection.

  22. yet they marked you as spam, hahahhah i love it keep the faith brother.

  23. LOL!!!
    Good point.

  24. I just wonder how George W. Jr. would have handle the situation?

  25. I would whole-heartedly volunteer to help destroys those cigars…one by one.
