Handmade Nicaraguan Tobacco Cigarillos from Germany

These small handmade cigarillos are made from Nicaraguan tobacco, featuring a short length and thin diameter typical of cigarillos. They contain real tobacco and are individually valued under 15¢ each, classifying them under HTS 2402.10.30.70 as 'other' cigars, cheroots, and cigarillos containing tobacco valued less than 15¢. The low unit value reflects mass production for affordable retail.
