Notes: Label source: Made in Mlanje, Brit Cent Africa from Tobacco grown there. Report by Messrs Grant Chambers & Co, 37 Fenchurch Street. Dated London 22.12 98 - The Cigars and cheroots are rolled too long, tight and hard which makes them difficult to smoke,, moreover they have been scented with some extraneous matter. We think they would be very difficult to sell. From Thornwood Estate, Mlanje
