GOLOFINA CIGARS

These Cigars are made in a British Factory in Jamaica from Havana Loaf Havana Cigars made in the Island of Cuba are considered the finest in the world, but the high cost prevents many smokers from buying them, furthermore, they are not suited to the damp and hot climate of South China

Golofina Cigars cannot strictly be called Havana Cigars, as they are made in Jamaica, which is 88 miles from Cuba, but they possess all the attributes of Havana Cigars and one other-they keep fresh and smoke well in this climate.

If you are a confirmed smoker of Manila Cigars try one box of Golofinas and you will be delighted with their excellent flavour and aroma.

They are packed in boxes of 25 and each box is enclosed in lead foil which ensures the cigars reaching the smoker in perfect condition.

The following are the selling prices :—--
