Hey Steve,

There is a cigar shop in Mumbai that sells Cubans-it's called Cingari and its located at the Lalit Hotel by the international airport. Other than that there are a couple of online retailers but your 9 day window might be too short to get anything from them.

Even though smoking is banned in public places, you'll find a lot of lounges here selling Armenteros cigars. These are Dominican and made by La Aurora for the Indian market. I struggled to get through a robusto and can't recommend them personally but different palates so you could give those a try.

Best advice would be to pick up some Cubans from duty free is you are connecting through an airport that sells them. No Cubans in Mumbai duty free (yet)

What are the dates in Mumbai. We have a little cigar & single malt club of some pretty diverse folks and we meet up regularly to enjoy some great stogies and malts. You're welcome to join!

Feel free to ping me if you need any other info.

Sammy
