no, they're dominican, imported by my wholesaler in new port richey, florida. i buy equal amounts of churchills and coronas. they're relatively inexpensive and, every once in a while, i'll get one that tastes so good i want to eat it.
i've not really been impressed with thompsons. their sampler packages always tasted a little bit dry, and it's hell to get yourself off their call-list afterwards.
