The wrappers may be a little faded too but that adds some character as does the dust.
Yeah, but you can fix the humidity problem by aging them in an old pine outhouse. You have to make sure it's used regularly and the seat is kept up for proper humidity. I think the cigars were made under similar circumstances to begin with. The flavorings are whatever air freshener scent happened to be in use that day.
