Yes it is possible. I have a contact in Rio San Juan who exports cigars from Tamboril. But not top brands, very few I liked.That's crazy. They must buy in bulk.
Do you know if it's possible though? It's for a business venture.
Vivonte. They are CdnI'm not a cigar smoker but my husband is. Last year we visited Tabacalera Garcia and he wanted to buy some cigars, as a gift for someone, in their shop after we toured the factory. He checked JR Cigar and realized the box was $125 less than buying them in the DR. A big difference. We then went to a local cigar shop in Bavaro and they had the same price. The guy in that store even told him to buy them in the U.S. and he'd save money on them. He ordered them from JR Cigar and they were at our house within 4 days of returning from the DR. I agree - send a gift certificate for JR Cigar. Much better value.
Is Vivante the same guys who had the glass shop on the beach in PC outside Huracan Cafe? I think he was from Belgium?? Not sure but he was so nice! We have been wondering what happened to him/them..
