Cuban cigars are found at a store called Habana. Walk up the street that goes upriver a little past the Dann Carlton.

Windchimes can be found in nurseries, or viveros, where they sell plants and pottery.

when in Cali when i was in Cali i went everywhere to find Cuban cigars, I asked everyone where i could buy them, no one knew and i never did find them. However, i did find some good Dominican cigars in cali at a little smoke shop right on 6th Ave.

Thanks billyb but I dont smoke anymore. I stopped smoking about 2 years ago. I must admit I do miss the taste of a good cigar once in awhile.

I like the occasional cigar. I suspect you'd be better off buying Dominican cigars rather than cubanos in Colombia. Best places to buy Cuban cigars are Cuba, Spain and Holland. Canada, not so much. Maybe three quarters of Cuban cigars sold are fake, many are also dry or poorly stored. If you don't know what to look for, not worth the outlay.

When I was in Cali a couple years ago i found a cuban cigar store around the corner from the Dann Carlton, I beleive it is was one of the "Authorized" cuban cigar dealers,(Casa del habana i think) but yet, they had plenty of *Fake* cuban cigars they were trying to pass off as real cuban cigars. so buyer beware!
