Rum in Cuba is the main ingredient of cocktails. I noticed that nobody drinks it straight. They have it in abundance because they produce it in Cuba. I didn’t managed to find out what is the price of rum is for Cubans, it is probably less than 0.1 convertible peso for a bottle of 1 liter. The convertible peso is only used by tourists. 1 convertible peso is worth about $1 US. As far as the rum - it is hard to be a good critic, because I have never drank it very much and always I mixed it with something else. I can only say that Cuban rum is normal - normal shock in the head and other body parts ... I drank it regularly and in sufficient quantities.
In Cuba you can buy cigars on the street, but it is illegal and you may buy an imitation, as they wrap them in private. Often they are wrapped in a banana leaf, and who knows what else. Could be cheaper but you may not get what you think you're buying.

Rum je na Kubi glavni sastojak svih koktela. Nisam primetio da ga neko pije bez dodataka, kao recimo mi rakiju (ipak smo mi delije). Imaju ga u izobilju jer ga sami proizvode. Nisam uspeo da saznam kolika mu je cena za Kubance, verovatno je manje od 0.1 konvertibilnog pezosa za flasu od 1 litra. Konvertibilni pezos koriste turisti, a oni imaju njihov pezos koji vredi malo vise od jednog govneta. 1 konvertibilni pezos vredi otprilike 1 americki dolar. Podelili su monetu tako da turisti kupuju po visim cenama nego oni, sto ima smisla jer bi u protivnom bilo nenormalno jeftino za turiste. Sto se ruma tice tu bas ne mogu da budem neki kriticar, posto ga ranije nisam previse pio, i uvek sam ga sa necim mesao, tako da samo mogu da konstatujem da je ovaj kubanski rum normalan - normalno udara u glavu i ostale delove tela ... konzumirao sam ga redovno i u dovoljnim kolicinama.
Na Kubi mozes da kupis cigare na ulici, ali je nelegalno i mozes da kupis imitaciju, posto ih oni privatno motaju, a cesto ih motaju i od lista banane i ko zna jos cime. Bude jeftinije ali ne dobijes ono sto mislis da si platio.
