Super dumb question, did they have BHK in stock in Havana? 

None to be found at all.

 top stuff mate!

I am looking forward to being there in 6 weeks time. let me know if you visited any new and hot places to eat, drink and dance. 

We stuck to the same routine for the most part.  Hotel Nacionale, El Aljibe, La Terraza, rinse/repeat.    TicTac for lunch was new to me and it was very good.  Sadly my stomach prevented me from enjoying clay pot chicken and cigars in general for the last 24 hours before I left.    Two of our crew did make their way to an after hours bar where their $18 rum bottle became $80 when the bill came around. And there was no renegotiating to be had.  I'll leave it to @CanuckSARTech for a full "places to debauch" list when he gets back.

Just back as well, didn't take many pictures of the cigars I enjoyed but here are a few.

4 of us stayed on for a few extra days. I'm in the process of writing a rather lengthy account of this trip and the contrast to our March trip. A general feeling of emotional deflation in the Cubans. The Nacional and most restaurants were ghost towns.

When's the last time you walked into La Terraza with 9 guys and had no problem finding seating?

On a person note, I was ecstatic to see I finally made the famed Partagas wall.

Thanks for adding the pictures John.  I didn't catch that photo of us in the distance at Partagas Festival.  I did a quick edit here. 

John, is in the black shirt, standing an puffing. Enis is standing with the camera and I'm down to the right from Enis in the white Panama hat.  I belive that is Amir in front of Enis next to Ramon (jar guy).

@ebhead thanks for the great photos! Interesting to see the building cranes in the photo of Havana viejo across the harbor from the national. They rebuilding after the hurricane?

Good question. Even if rebuilding, where did they get the money? It's been stumping me since I saw them.

Marc is also in the photo, off to the left, smoking a cigar.
