Bought a new pack of Ernte 23 yesterday...how much have the flavors of these cigarettes changed over the years?

I've just read in memoirs of Serbian patriarch Gavrilo (Dožić)
about his arrestment by SD men.
He is mentioning these SD men eating and drinking robbed Serbian food and wine,
and after all that smoking robbed Serbian cigarettes: "Vardar", "Morava" and "Drina".
(and talking about how good those are :) )

Cheers,
Ivan

An Unteroffizier emerges from his tank turret side hatch to get some fresh air during a stop. 15. Panzer-Division in Libya (spring 1942)...
