This should be used as a blending tobacco. I've only had one Cuban cigar in my life. Brought back by a friend in the Navy. It had a full flavour that almost had a smoked meat aftertaste. Pleasant but demanding on the palette. McConnell's pure Cuban does taste authentic but I don't think anyone will like it straight, so I began blending...
I've found that it will work well with a light virginia at the otherend to pull the pile of flavour's out of the Cuban.
Then I sometimes add a slight pinch of Perique to reinforced and deepen the Cuban.
Burley's nuttiness didn't work for me as an ingredient so I don't recommend it.
Latakia(which is basically a light Virginia in my book) worked very well. Like adding cream to coffee. Again, drawing out the flavour.
Cavendish is a fine way to keep the original richness of the Cuban while it carries the notes on a pillow of sweet acrid mist almost.
My best blend so far is as follows...
One part Pure Cuban One part Light Virginia or Latakia Two parts Cavendish(Non-Cased) Pinch of Perique
This is the fullest personal blend I've ever made. Keeps you interested all night with a rewardingly deep smoke.

I Smoke Cuban and Honduras CIgare since many years with Whisjy about 100$ each, and for to be Clearely : NOT and NOT. Tabaco Pipe is not similare and quality of Cigare is about 10-30 more better, but price is about same....
After Cigare Need many Types, never ONE, soo if this TAbacco with one Type can to be same Cigare, why Cigare use several?
But tabacoo Pipe is nice. This is simple, very simple. Other I try is very better complexe, this just a All day, and not a Cigare it is IMPOSSIBLE price of Cigare is about 50 more just guy use your brain a bit.... xD
