Very nice. They are very good smokes. It's been maybe fifteen years since I had one

BTW - the person I bought the cigars from went to an annual cigar event and it is autographed by Dick Butkus, Rocky Patel, Carlito Fuente, Eric Newman (J.C. Newman family,) and Pauly Walnuts (from the Sopranos.)

Yes. They are clear Havana's. It says so on the bands. So possibly not technically pre embargo. No matter.

that would be pre embargo if they were made before the embargo. My grandmother drove a pre embargo Ford Fairlane, it wasn't made in Cuba either.

Enjoy the cigars
