I went to Cuba in February and came back with a full liter of 7 year old Havana Club, that I bought at their headquarters in Havana. But it is long gone. Sigh.

I always just declared it as "whisky" when I crossed the border and never had anything searched. Nice to know that I don't have to worry anymore.

I said 3 bottles of rum tonite and they let me right through, with no duty either.
