Anyone for a Cuban cigar? Cigar factories and associated storefronts are plentiful along Calle Ocho, the main street in Little Havana, Miami's Cuban American neighborhood.

Two gents enjoy cigars and conversation in front of the Art District Cigars Lounge and Factory, in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood. And yes, if you look closely, you might spot the photographer's reflection in the window too. :-)

The original building was the first brick cigar factory constructed in Tampa in 1886. Vincent Martinez Ybor, its founder, constructed a model city surrounding the factory where the cigar workers resided. The factory was the focal point for the cigar workers who lived in the area called Ybor City. Ybor's building was the largest hand-rolled cigar complex which was typical of a distinct industry and era in the history of Florida. It was unique because it brought industrialization to a predominantly agrarian town. Large numbers of Latinos who worked in the factory were introduced into a white Anglo-Saxon based society. The success of the factory stimulated other cigar industries to move to Tampa, making Ybor City the cigar capital of the United States by 1900. In less than twenty years Tampa changed from a small port town to a thriving city. From the steps of the main factory building, Jose Marti, a Cuban patriot and martyr, rallied support for Cuban independence. After the Spanish-American War, these steps were removed to Cuba to become a National Shrine.

The top 3 name brands of Cuban Cigars.The best from left to right. COHIBA ,MONTECRISTO , and ROMEO Y JULIETA.
I just toured the famous Partegas cigar factory and was determined to find someone on the street smoking a cigar. To my delight, the only one I spotted was this wonderful older woman with her friend. I showed them the results, and they were delighted.

canon g10 saturday 8 aug, after working in the restaurant where she cut her vinger of her other hand badly.
Francisco esta orgulloso de sus hojas, esas que se combinan para dar lugar a un aroma y sabores únicos, pero sus hojas no salen de su vega sin pasar primero por sus manos y no me refiero a la recogida, almacenaje, secado, sino a esas manos que acarician las hojas cual enamorado campesino entregado por completo a su pasión.
...Muchos quieren ayudarme cuando voy a colgar las hojas para el secado... nos contaba ...pero prefiero hacerlo yo, pues ellas conocen del amor que les profeso...
Esa pasión por estas sus hojas se manifiesta en su mirada y las marcadas huellas del sol sobre su piel.
Pero no deja de sentirse confiado y nos abre las puertas de su casa para una próxima visita. Gracias Francisco por otorgarnos un pedacito de tu preciado tiempo y regalarnos esta clase de amor por la vida.
Francisco is proud of its leaves, those that are combined and lead to unique aroma and flavor, but the leaves not went out his vega without going through his hands first and I am not referring to the collection, storage, dryed process, but to the knowledge that this farmer hands offer to his treasure with cars, theaves completely surrendered the leaves are surrenden under his passion.
... Many want to help me when I'm hanging for drying the leaves... he told us ... ... but I'd rather do it myself because the leaves understand the love I professed...
That passion for these leaves is manifested in his eyes and the marked tracks the sun on his skin.
But it remains happy and confident while opens the doors of his house for a next visit. Thanks Francisco for giving us a bit of your precious time and give us this kind of love for life.

- The Complex Cultural Fabric of Cuba -
Black Pride & Cigar smoke Mingled with Floribunda Roses & Gladioli
Can You ?
Can you sell me the air as it slips through your fingers
As it slaps at your face and untidies your hair?
Perhaps you could sell me fivepennyworth of wind
Perhaps the elegant air, you would sell me, that air
which trips around your garden, from corolla to corolla *
tenpenceworth of elegant air ...
The air spins and goes by in a butterfly
Belongs to No-one, No-one
Nicolás Guillén Batista - the National poet of Cuba
"A grain of poetry suffices to season a century." Jose Marti
PS : 'Cuba Dance' is a Floribunda rose with several flowers on each stem,creating a sea of yellowish-red flowers,a bouquet on every branch.It's a glorious variety with very profuse flowering and they are long-lasting cut flowers.The small flowers look like elegant hybrid tea roses,but appear in clusters instead of one flower per stem.They are a cross between polyantha species roses and hybrid teas,combining hardiness,free flowering,and showy,fragrant blooms.Few plants produce an abundant and incessant display of flowers as the Floribunda Rose.
* Corolla is the second axillary whorl composed of Petals.
Well,lots of local colour bringing out the charm and the value of the everyday life in Havana’s 500-year-old streets & narrow alleyways.
Whether on a bike,pushing a cart or at a stall,the flower sellers enliven the decaying colonial grandeur of a city where the clocks froze half a century ago.These scenes are sort of daily rituals that make the city’s heartbeat so vibrant.
Havana residents always greet you with a smile and they love to exchange pleasantries with you.They are so gregarious and friendly.
Doña Carmela,the flower seller,brought out the charm and the spirit of the everyday life with her genuine friendliness and some Cuban Dance Roses in her basket.

Along with colourful classic cars, Cuba is also famous for its Cigars. On the streets of Havana everyone is selling them.

New reforms allow some self employment in Cuba now, much of it related to tourism. Adeline is 67 years old. She has 8 living adult children. One daughter died age 16, in a car accident (the father being the driver) and a son, at age 9, of gastrointeritis. She told me she worked as a maid, in the hotel I stayed in, for 10 years after her children were grown. Now she has successfully applied for a license to "busk" the tourist industry & has 3 state-assigned street locations in Habana Vieja. Though her dress is extremely eccentric, its purpose, and all the paraphenalia she has with her, including the cigars, is to encourage the tourists to want to pose with her for a photo...for which she hopes for the generosity of a small payment. She works her "spots" from 10am to 10 pm, most often 7 days a week. On a good day she can perhaps make the equivalent of $10. Some days she makes nothing but must pay the almost $5 daily licensing fee regardless. And pay taxes on her earnings. She'd probably do better if she were more gregerious but, belieing her physical appearance, she's actually a quiet gentle soul, even shy. She will also read your tarot cards but as she can only read in spanish, non-spanish speaking tourists have no interest in this aspect of her business. Adeline became a friend. Some evenings I'd seek her out and just sit with her awhile. I came to appreciate both how easy I've had it in life and the resilience of the female spirit .
Hasta la vista, Adeline! Be well.
Many thanks to dear flickrfriend Ronaldo for his most generous testimonial.
Ronaldo's wonderful photostream can be seen here
This is a friend I recently met in one of the bike rides in town.
He loves fashion, from big Cuban cigars to real big engines ~

Met Elvira in Havana's Chinatown. I think she has fabulous bone structure,
the foundation of great beauty. One of my fave subjects from Habana Vieja,
I never got around to posting her here but included her in the Oct photo exhibit.
I think about Havana a lot. About the sad people I met there......... in their island
prison...........and the moments of their lives they willingly shared with me.
And yet the thoughts are fultile. Nothing to be done about it. Or for them.
