MIAMI — The first iconic Cuban product to reach U.S. store shelves will be coffee. Sorry, no rum or cigars just yet.

Swiss-based Nespresso announced Monday that it will sell long-restricted coffee throughout the U.S. starting this fall, the latest evidence of renewed ties between the United States and Cuba after five decades of estrangement.

Nice, I don't give a rats azz one way or the other about Cuban Cigars but they do have some good dark roast coffee's down there.  I find it hard to believe the good stuff will come by way of Nespresso though but you never know.

Of course entrance of any Cuban cigars will be impacted by the FDA, but if they do, after the initial sensation, I think the real impact will be when blenders incorporate some Cuban tobacco into other lines.

@ Fish - You left quick yesterday how was your Father's Day weekend get-together?

The weekend was awesome, great weather at the beach. Saw my dad and my sister, came home Sunday around noon and got together with my BILs and SILs for a BBQ. Smoked 2 cigars at the beach and 3 on Sunday. The MCIIIs are rounding into form very nicely now IMO, had a Roxxo

Sounds like a great time all around!

Looking forward to the rum more than the cigars.

Indeed!

I read last week that it is not out of the question that O'gunner and team might exempt Cuban made Cigars from those FDA regulations making them price competitive with other cigars.

If they do that, it should give the rest of the industry strong cause for challenging any restrictions as well.

No but as a part-time employee you are at risk of losing your paid benefits including health insurance, matching 401k contributions, pension and paid vacation time.
