The Griffin's regular line was an old favorite of mine dating back almost to my earliest days of smoking cigars, which would be late '96. I discovered those early on, perhaps in late '96, certainly by mid '97. The size I liked, the Prestige, at 7 1/2x50, is kind of hard to get these days, and the price has gone up, so I haven't had any in years. If they taste anything like the ones I smoked, they're great. A light Connecticut shade wrapper, with potent filler, giving medium body and flavor, with a bit of a kick.
