News: C.Gars Auctions Vintage Havana Cigar Auction

Here’s some news from my long time friends at C.Gars Ltd about their upcoming Vintage Havana Cigar Auction on Sunday. I’ll be at a wedding on Sunday in Massachusetts, so let me know how it goes!  I see there are Davidoff Dom Perignon and No. 1s from the 80s listed, I smoked a Dom Perignon from the 70s once at a wedding and it was sublime!  (come to think of it, my wife smoked a similar vintage No. 1 at the same affair and I finished it, also exceptional!) There won’e be anything like that at the wedding this weekend, but I’ll take some good cigars along to share.
