I have been asked to bring back some cigars from my next trip to Aruba. As a non smoker I've no idea of the best place to buy them or if the quality differs between shops. Anyone have any tips?
I would say my first tip is to learn how to inspect a cigar. There are wonderful cigars in Aruba but there are also some people who might try to sell you a fake. You want to be looking for the band and the way it is rolled. Learning how to identify a fake will help you avoid the shady spots.
That's a good tip. Plus if all else fails you can always pick some up at the airport. I know there are Cuban cigars available, not sure what else. Be careful to check you don't exceed your allowance.
I am not very educated when it comes to cigars, either. How is a good cigar rolled, exactly? I have friends who would really appreciate it if I brought back a good cigar as a souvenier.
