Smoking in Cuba is prevalent, with a Gallup poll in May 2007 revealing that 45% of Cuban people had smoked on the day before the survey. [1]

The Peoples' Organization of Cuba (PO Cuba) said smoking rates are too high in the country and must be lowered.

Cuba has excellent conditions for growing tobacco, with several regions enjoying world-class conditions for cultivation. The Pinar del Rio province, located at the western end of the island, is particularly important for tobacco cultivation and contains the Vuelta Abajo and Semi Vuelta regions. These regions are known for producing some of the finest tobacco in the world. Cuban cigars are manufactured in Cuba using tobacco grown within the country. The wrapper, filler, and binder of a cigar can all be grown in Cuba. Cuban cigars have a long-standing reputation for being among the world's finest cigars.[2]
