I just ran into this (I've never shipped cigars before) so I figured I'd share, when printing shipping labels on USPS.com it'll say:

* I agree that I will present any items that are liquid, perishable or potentially hazardous to a postal employee for acceptance and that all fragile items are properly packaged. Any item containing cigarettes or smokeless tobacco must be presented to a Postal Service employee at a Retail Post Office location for proper acceptance. See DMM601.11.6.1a

I usually account for people's ignorance (thinking cigarettes count as cigars, etc.) however this does NOT apply towards cigars so it should be taken literally. Just print it and you're good to go!
