But you can’t smoke words, and dollar bills don’t make good cigar wrappers. The only proof of a cigar is smoking it. If you like it, in every way, it’s a good cigar. If it’s too strong or too dry or too costly or too anything else, it is not a good cigar as far as you are concerned. Smoking is so much a part of man’sdaily pleasure, that you owe it to yourself to smoke exactly suited to you. For this reason, we urge you to try a Dutch Masters Cigar.
