Description
A La Clave Collection Offering.
Four sealed units. Two blends. Two formats each. No reserve.
Esoterica Tobacciana Penzance and Stonehaven — bag and tin of each — blended exclusively for Arango Cigar Co. by J.F. Germain & Son in St. Helier, Jersey. Cellared together undisturbed as part of the 99-tin, 20+ lb La Clave Collection since 2017.
Penzance — 8oz bag (batch 654081) / Penzance — 2oz tin (batch 663084)
Finest English Mottled Flake. The blend that made Germain a household name in American pipe tobacco and turned drop days into events. Two formats, two batch numbers, nine years of undisturbed rest in the same cellar.
Stonehaven — 8oz bag (batch 767B072) / Stonehaven — 2oz tin (batch 788B083)
Dark Full Bodied Flake. Penzance's darker, denser counterpart — less chased, no less deserving. The collector who knows, knows.
All four sealed. All four perfect. Stored in a climate-controlled wine cellar as part of the 99-tin, 20+ lb La Clave Collection, resting together since 2017.
For those who followed the earlier La Clave auctions — matched bag and tin flights of Penzance and Stonehaven were each offered separately. If you were watching and missed one, or both, fortune doesn't often call twice.
Offered together as a single lot, no reserve, with the true connoisseur in mind.
