🔎 About Hofnar Cigars
Brand origin: Hofnar was a well-known Dutch cigar brand, established in the Netherlands and very popular during the mid-20th century.
Name meaning: Hofnar translates to “court jester” in Dutch, and their logo usually featured a jester figure.
Market: These cigars were positioned as affordable but good-quality Dutch cigars, exported widely across Europe and sometimes beyond.
Popularity: Particularly strong in the 1950s–1970s; by the late 20th century the brand declined with the shrinking cigar market.

📦 The Box
Your box is a cardboard dress box designed to look like woodgrain, with ornate multicolour printing. It contains the “Bouquet” line, which was marketed as a smooth, aromatic cigar blend. The seals and gilded edges suggest it was intended for export sale, possibly in the UK or other European countries. Being unopened increases its appeal to collectors of tobacco memorabilia, even if the cigars themselves have likely dried out.
