manilla

Manilla cigars have an extensive reputation, but principally in the East and in Europe.

There are not as many colors of Manilla cigars as there are of Havana, and they are not as closely assorted.

Manilla tobacco usually burns well, if the leaf is of good quality and well sweated, still it is known as a non-burning tobacco.

There are but few grades of Manilla cigars, and most of them are solid and well wrapped.

Be so good as to remember me to the lads and the Manilla man, and write me by return of post.
