Best I could find for a solid explanation was

Fleeing the revolt against Spain in 1868, Cubans originally migrated to Key West and brought the Havana cigar business with them. These cigar makers imported tobacco leaf from Cuba and started rolling. Their product was called "Clear Havana" because little tax was demanded by Spain for raw leaf product compared to finished cigars; "clear" meaning "without tax due".

Borrowed from http://www.kwcigarfactory.com/key_we...rs_history.php



Either way whatever you call these they are SUPER tasty it was a solid review and I am glad you enjoyed it would have like to given you more but I am already down to yragic supply levels.
