Puros Y Vino Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 I recently acquired some clear Havanas circa 1950's. They're in great shape and have some mild, tobacco aromas. I might fire up one of the "Blackstones" in a few months to see how they smoke. In the photo below, I have the 2002 Ramon Allones Mille Fleurs which I recently smoked and reviewed. Next to it is a Ramon Allones Aristocrats. From the 1940's I believe. I love that old green & white label. Now seen on the RAE.
Ginseng Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Lovely! I look forward to your review. Wilkey
Lotusguy Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Those little notes with the occasion for the smokes are awesome!

Cohiba Stevie Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Forgive me if this question is a bit too forward... How much would a box like the excellent examples above run for? Many thanks.
