It cannot legally be done, and the fines for trying it are exceptionally high.
Now, this is the thing: It has been over 50 years since the embargo was decreed. In that time, Honduras and Nicaragua have become first-rate cigar-producing nations and a ton of counterfeited Cuban cigars are floating around. (I read a statistic once that was shocking: in some Cuban vitolas, such as the infamous Cohiba Esplendido, there are nine counterfeited cigars for every genuine one.) I would recommend savoring some of the fine and very legal cigars from H. Upmann, Punch, El Rey del Mundo or Romeo y Julieta and not worrying about your inability to legally buy Cubans.

Are Cuban cigars the best cigars?
I believe they are. I was one of those who believed that there were many cigars that all stood up to the scrutiny of the Cuban cigar. I am no longer of that belief. I started smoking Cuban Cigars in China and have been smoking them for almost three years now. I also still smoke Honduran, Nicaraguan, and Dominican. Though there are many good cigars out there, by and large Cuban's hold the honor (in my book) as the best Cigars in the world.

Are Cuban cigars legal to possess in the United States?
The most common "penalty" for bringing Cuban cigars into the US is confiscation by US Customs. In my 12 years of being in the cigar business, I have never heard of anyone being jailed for bringing Cuban cigars into the US. I have heard of individuals being jailed and prosecuted for trafficking in Cuban cigars (bringing large quantities into the US and reselling them). Based on my experience and those of my customers, you have a 50/50 chance of having cigars confiscated by Customs when you re-enter the US.
