My Trip to Cuba- el Final

On my last day in Cuba, I ventured out early in the morning for coffee and a light bite. I came across Café El Escorial in the magnificent, scenic square, Plaza Vieja. The Cuban coffee and croissant were excellent. I grabbed a cup of coffee to go and headed for the Calixto López y Compañía tobacco factory and warehouse. Built in 1886, the factory takes up practically 4 city blocks. My goal was to go to the gift store and purchase a few Cubans. I wasn’t sure if I could bring any home yet, so a couple for the day would do for now. Calixto López y Compañía store was unfortunately closed. My next stop was La Casa del Habano on Quinta Avenida. The beautiful shop has a bar and is the only cigar shop to have a restaurant on its premises. I sat at the bar and ordered one more Cuban coffee and one each Montecristo - No. 2, Partagas - Serie D No.4, and a Romeo Y Julieta – Churchill. I started with the Montecristo and spoke with fellow cigar aficionados for the rest of the morning. I wish I had more time to linger but I had a 2:00 flight back home. Adios, Cuba! Until we meet again.....
