While Frank got to visit three factories in Havana ( he also went to tour the La Corona factory ), I only joined the group for a tour of H.Upmann and El Laguito as I wanted to greet friends there and had only limited time.<\/p>\n
Touring H.Upmann I can not get over the fact that I’m basically at Romeo y Julieta – just that it has offered shelter to the H.Upmann rollers literally without of a roof while their own factory is renovated after flooding .<\/p>\n
It was a pleasure to meet with the director Carlos and with Maritza, the genial chief roller and all other friends there.<\/p>\n
Same at El Laguito greeting the always friendly and helpful Berta who guided the newcomers through the factory explaining its history and working details and volunteering for a Q&A session.<\/p>\n
Two delicate details caught my eye on that tour – having a security guy tail the visitors at all times and not allowing the entire group to take the tour.<\/p>\n
Guess things are taking a turn for the more strict after all the past news from the factories.<\/p>\n
Still, always impressive.<\/p>\n
