I had a few emails back and forth with the guy that runs it: it was about some pre-embargo sticks that were being bandied about on here at the time. Nice chap.
Pre-embargo? Guess they were for collectors not smokers. I wonder how many pre-embargo Cuban cigars are sitting in humi's in the US frightened to come out?
If you want to, you can.
And, if you can, you must!
Camacho still make pre-embargo tobacco cigars. As I understand it they have tobacco that was bundled and had been aging since 1962 (or erlier) in a barn somewhere that was never rolled. How they authenticate it I don't know.
Mike: Neil, it is very rare you interest me, but today you have. Why do you keep coming in here, carrying a cake, and saying surprise? Neil: It's my birthday. Mike: Now you knew that anyway, and we don't care, so where's the surprise? The Young Ones

i've smoked a few of them,they're ok,not great. from what i understand there is only a leaf or two of pre embargo tobacco included.just enough to get away with calling them pre embargo...

There were also some real dinky little things (in five packs), but I can't remember what they were called. The 'Lords of England' range has since been resurrected by Jamaican manufacturers I believe, but I couldn't find out much about them.
I've possibly misled with the term pre-embargo, but with a date of circa 1920, I guess they definately were pre, the embargo (by a couple of years at least)
