100% Tariffs On Nicaraguan Cigars & How It Can Be Stopped

The U.S. Trade Office is considering 100% tariffs on all Nicaraguan cigars, and it could completely reshape the cigar world as we know it. In this video, I’m breaking down what’s behind this proposal, what it would mean for prices, and how it could impact the families and small businesses that make Nicaragua one of the most important cigar-producing countries on Earth.

We’ll talk about the human stories inside the industry — where generations work together, kids get education opportunities through family-owned factories, and cigars are crafted as a true art form. I’ll also explain how you can learn more and share your thoughts through the official public comment process hosted by the U.S. Trade Representative.
